Can we create an 11 just for him and Dr. [name], please? They patiently answered my most ridiculous questions and thoroughly answered everything, with easy-to-understand explanations. Fun fact, I'm not a doctor, but I tried to be through google and ChatGPT and they explained away all of my anxiety that the digital realm had fed into my brain. I was so anxious and had told myself 1,000 stories and both doctors listened patiently, explained thoroughly, and are true experts on my condition. I don't think I've ever trusted medical experts so much. Truly, you never know what you're going to get, and I've had bad experiences with medical experts who don't communicate well, and don't let you ask your questions and express your fears. Drs [name] and Aadam are truly one-of-a-kind, compassionate, honest, thorough, respectful. The only way I could've felt better about the consultation, pre-surgery, is if it was conducted by my college friends lol.
