If you ask questions, Dr Dan will answer them. Depending on the patient's ability to understand the surgical procedure, Dr Murphy will take the appropriate amount of time to explain what is needed to address the patient's concerns. Having been a patient with SOS for over 40yrs and many many surgeries I am very happy with my experiences with Dr Murphy.

Didn't explain my options for a small lump on finger, only surgery. Spent under 5 min on diagnosis-said cyst, turned out to be a bone spur. Never told I would receive general anesthetic. Pre-op/post-op instructions and directions arrived after surgery performed. Did not have time to talk to me after surgery. Dr did not attend first follow up. Second follow-up waited 1hr, saw Dr Murphy for 1min 45 sec. Was rude & dismissive, as were nurses.
