Dr. Telem's ability, expertise, care, compassion and bed side manner is totally top Shelf! This is day 17 of post OP recovery, from hurnea surgery which I might add I had a few of them, caused by an emergency appendectomy in 2015, by another surgeon, which left me with a 12" scar 1/8" wide! and lot's of staples. Dr. Telem not only repaired the hurnea's, added surgical mesh and straightened and thinned the scar perfectly using only surgical butterflies. On day five I took one 5mg tablet of oxycodone for pain and that was it. Today was day two of walking two miles (with her permission) I also need to add that I am a V.A. patient! who she didn't even need to except as one of her own. I will boast of her for the rest of my life!!!

Dr. Telem is a delightful doctor who made it easier for me to understand why I needed undergo surgery, and laid out the procedure clearly so I could understand what would happen. She completed the procedure and her office was wonderful with follow up as well.
