I thought that she was great. She educated me on my situation, presented me with options, and spent the time with me as needed. Good experience. As a new patient I arrived 20 mins early to fill out paperwork; they got me back exactly at time of appointment; she was present within 10 mins.

Terrible experience. Colon surgery was botched. Nicked artery. Ended up with colostomy and more colon removed than originally planned. Bad bedside manner. Could only say this had never happened before.
