She took time to meet with me prior to, as well as the time of, my surgery to make sure that all of my questions were answered and that I was comfortable.

I felt the doctor was very rushed. I had to fill out many long questionaires. The questions asked were not addressed in my appointment ( which was a video appointment ) In my in person appointment she was again rushed. The fellow found some issues but those issues were not addressed. Because had just had a procedure I did not have the presence of mind to address the findings of the fellow. I would say the care was not well coordinated between providers I saw
