Staff was top notch from initial screening to surgery. Pre-op was a bit long and tedious, and only made anxiety worse. The staff did their best to keep patients engaged but the wait was too long.

What I appreciate the most about Dr. Woolfson practice is that he takes time to thoroughly explain the procedure and possible complications. He is personable and made me feel like I was his only patient even though there was a group of us in the room. Thus far, my experience has been nothing but extraordinary.

It would have been nice to have the initial consultation with the same Doctor that is performing the surgery. In this case Dr. Woolfson. Overall, I have no complaints!
