I'm over it with Dr. Fowler. Glad I had the surgery, but honestly he doesn't really give me the time of day. His exams are like a rehearsed speech, and not much compassion.

My pre-surgery consult with Dr Fowler was the most comprehensive, informed, and thorough review of my upcoming surgery that I've ever experienced. I feel I am well informed and completely at ease, not only about the surgery itself, but also about what to expect post-surgery.
