Dr Mark Hamilton administered a spinal and it was a very comfortable surgery which I recovered much quicker that General Anesthesia without the horrible side effects of a sore throat. He listened to my concerns of nausea and administered something which made that situation very controllable. Additionally, I was permitted to bring into the surgical unit my own phone and earbuds to play my personal playlist. I believe this made a monumental difference in my ability to relax. (He explained that in general, they use 10% less drugs when people listen to music they enjoy) The Hospital, Northside Cumming Surgical Outpatient Unit, GA, even provides MP3 players and disposable earbuds with different playlists to select if you forgot or did not realize you could bring your own. I love the innovation and attention to detail Dr Hamilton provides to his patients. Nice personality, listened to me and answered my questions. Highly recommend Dr. Mark E. Hamilton, Anesthesiologist (honestly,
never met his staff, but all stars from me.)
