Dr. Q is a perfectionist and wants the best of what YOU want. He takes his time to clearly explain the details of all your concerns and questions. He doesn't tell you what you want to hear, he tells you the truth. He gently pointed out the reason I was in to see him wasn't because of what I thought, and he took extra time to explain the what's, why's and how's to me. I had a lot of surgery at one time. He and his WONDERFUL staff called that night (a few times) and in 2 weeks I am looking good, feeling good and my recovery process has been amazing, which goes to show you.. Do what your Doctor says! Pre and Post Op. His staff is really invested in your success. Irene is the best! She tells it like it is and is compassionate of your needs. A friend and I had our surgeries 6 weeks apart and it's clear how they recognize each patients individual needs. Rachel is awesome and it's like they go through this process 'with'you. I don't feel like a patient, I am a part of their team.
