"Dr. Feng was very helpful, both in our initial phone conversation, and during my consult. I'm very pleased to be having him doing my surgery - and impressed with the thought and concern he has shown about me personally!
I brought in a full set of my medical records, and we reviewed them as he asked questions. He was clear about the risks and my expectations.
The aftercare was emphasized, as well as the nutritional aspects and the followup labs and appointments.
I was very impressed. I've had other surgeries (serious eye and other major surgeries) and some great doctors. I also worked in a specialized Spina Bifida clinic with some great doctors for 3 years. So I feel like I know a little bit about doctors... and Dr. Feng was excellent on all of the counts I was expecting.
In addition, he had great interpersonal skills, and never left me feeling rushed. I would keep competence over bedside manner, but Dr. Feng has both. I'm pleased.
Post-op update: Fabulous surgical competence. Despite a problem with my intestines (not due to them) they did a great job, in my opinion. Dr. Feng and Dr. Jossart went out of their way to make my husband more comfortable with the procedure. I had many visits in the hospital, and quick, prompt followup on my calls and questions post-op. Dr. Feng was even available at 2 am to switch my pain medication promptly! I can't say enough about their professionalism and their assistance with every detail. I've had my first followup appointment and will be having labs at 3 mo, 6 mo, etc. I'm also attending the monthly support group."
