All I can really say is I thank my lucky stars for being referred to him. I thought life, as I knew it, was over. Then I met him. Actually-I digress-I'll answer the question at hand(pertaining to the telehealth visit), then work my way back to a previous survey sent after my initial in person meeting. This was my second time talking to him, the only time that it was a telehealth visit. He immediately asked if I had any questions, and answered them in a quick, competent, and compassionate manner. Assured me that all would be well, and that he and his team would take great care of me. Seriously-the level of warmth combined with his reputation as one of America's greatest surgeons Is a rarity. I'll be the first to say that, even If he had an endless ego with the personality of a potato chip, I'd still be grateful to be his patient. Him having such a genuine concern for my well being, a sense If humor, and pride In the staff that helps him makes him stellar. It's wonderful when these qualities are evident. Not like you need me to tell you this, but he Is the best.
