Hugh Houston

"I met Dr. Houston for the second time during my surgery consultation on 11/01/06. What really impressed me was his interest in me personally. When he walked in I was reading a National Geographic article on the deepest cave in the world and I told him I was just reading about something I was in love with. He asked me what and we proceeded to have a ten minute conversation about caving. Then he said, \"Well, I guess we need to talk about surgery, huh?\" It was great to feel that he truly was interested in not just my surgery but in me as a person. He explained everything to my husband in detail and answered all our questions. His staff is awesome, very sweet and polite and genuinely interested in me. The office have a great aftercare program and support services so I feel I am in great hands. Dr. Houston explained the risks of the surgery very matter of factly. I can honestly say that the only thing I didn't like, and this is so minor it's almost a nothing, was that he did get a call during our session and seemed to lose his train of thought when he came back. But he had already answered all our questions so it was not upsetting or anything. Overall, I would have to rate Dr. Houston at a 9.75...pretty darn great!!! I truly feel that both surgical competence and bedside manner are almost equal in importance as far as making someone feel good about their choice and I really do feel good! I feel that I am in the best program I could be in!"
