"My first impression was that he seemed to really know his \"stuff\". He was very nice the first time i saw him. The 2 other times i saw him seemed to be betther than the first because it was at these points that i was ready for my surgery. The last time (a few weeks ago) was probably the most humor i saw from him because i told him i got sick and tired of the insurance companies and that im paying for it myself. He seemed really interested in knowing how i was paying for it. Maybe shocked that i just came to this decision. His office staff was good. I usually like to deal with only the office manager after one bad phone call with one of the office staff that was very rude to me on the phone. (We'll just chalk that up to having a bad day) rnrn--i'll be able to comment more after i have the surgery on march 4th!"
