Pain control is not a priority with this Dr. I called him sobbing due to post surgical pain, and not only did he raise his voice at me, he also laughed at me. He refused to give me anything stronger, and when I went through the low dose pain medication that he did give me faster than he thought necessary, he refused to refill it and hinted at me being a "drug seeker." Luckily, my family Dr. knows better and helped me, otherwise I would've been in pain for weeks.

What a great Doctor this is. To top that off he is kind and understanding and he takes the time to really listen. In addition he really cared that I was in pain and did everything to make sure I was made comfortable. He has operated on me for many diverse reasons. He has been one of my doctors for a long time and will alway's be.

He is fabulous to work with, except for the fact he is stuck with the older surgeons who refuse new procedures. Times change and there is better out there. I just wish he would go somewhere that is better, where he can see the patient from start to finish.
