Friendly, knowledgeable and was fully able to explain upcoming surgery so that I would understand the procedure.
Providence Patient
Felt extremely confident in the Dr. And his PA. Waiting time for surgery was about 5 hours. Didn't need to come so early but was told it was time to be determined. Just seemed long without drinking anything.
