Gregg Jossart

"I first met Dr. Jossart at one of his support group meetings. He was so mellow and unassuming I thought he was \"from the doctor's office\" I was surprised he was the surgeon! He made no sales pitches, only gave clear, balanced, factual information to the prospects who came prior to the support group. What impressed me most about him was that every single month he meets his patients in an open, public setting and remembers everyone by name, and their stories (there were maybe 50 - 60 people in the room), he welcomed patients of other surgeons. I felt that if this man had any skeletons in his closet he couldn't possibly be so public and unassuming!rnrnI was also impressed that so many people present were either husband/wife teams or mother/daughter teams - I thought \"if you liked this man's work well enough to have the person you love most go through the same thing, he must be good!\"rnrnMy impression has not changed. Once, the day before surgery, I had a panic about test results and he returned my call immediately, even though it was evening. Post surgery I developed a black tongue which he researched and forwarded articles to me explaining the phenomenon, and he called me. Great follow up.rnrnHis staff are great and clearly love working for him. One of his staff flew her (I think it was niece) out from Florida to have Dr. Jossart perform the surgery. The OR nurse and the anesthesiologist were both enthusiastic about working with him, they have worked with him on many of his ops and they were clearly a good team. As I went \"under\" I felt completely at ease and in good hands.rnrnHe gave me a thorough and detailed pre-surgery packet and diet, I knew exactly what to expect, exactly what to eat and drink. He keeps all his printed materials updated and rewrites as often as necessary. He told me what was \"new\" this printing and what changes were pending in the next re-write.rnrnThe one month his support group meeting fell on opening day of little league, he met both obligations by greeting his group and bringing in a plastic surgeon to talk to us while he went to little league. I really like that he has family and professional life well-balanced.rnrnI had no complications and could not rate him more highly than a perfect score on both competence and manner.rnrnMy surgical fee includes 2 years of follow-up, and I feel like I have a partner who is interested in my success. I was not \"just another patient\"."
