Dr.Szomstein operated on me twice. I was so nervous at first about having the surgery. He was so understanding and such a wonderful surgeon, explaining everything to me and answering all my many questions that I calmed down and went through the surgery with no problems. He was excellent! When I had to have my second surgery I was so confident of Dr Szomstein and knew I was in excellent hands. My recovery was excellent and I couldn't ask for a more profesional Doctor and better results.
