" * What was your first impression of him/her?
Very professional, clean-cut, and intelligent!
* How did your impression change over time?
Has not changed.
* How would you describe his/her office staff?
Obviously, not everyone will be friendly at every moment of the day, but 98% of the staff have been wonderful to work with on a monthly basis. They all seem to take pride and care in their work.
* What did you like least about him/her?
He seemed rushed, but it was understandable.
* What should future patients know about him/her?
To feel comfortable and that you are in good hands!
* How much does he/she emphasize aftercare?
Have not taken those steps on my journey yet.
* How did he/she address the risks of surgery?
Since I do my "homework" I know the risks of the surgery, but Dr. Chand was very thorough and is confident my surgery will be a success.
* How would you rate him/her overall?
9.5/10
* Which is better, surgical competence, bedside manner, or are both great?
Both are great, but since it is my life in the surgeons hands I feel surgical competence overrides just a little bit. I can handle rude bedside manner more than putting my life in the hands of an unsuccessful surgeon!
