My appt with Dr Sowa was great. But was disappointed that I was unable to schedule recommended surgery given that Samantha was out Friday and Monday and there was no additional coverage.

I think he is very knowledgeable.in his field of medicine, But his mannerisms are not very nice he is very dismissive and I believe he tries to intimidate you from feeling whatever it is your feeling just to try to rush you back to work. Which is very wrong because sometimes people are not able to say whatever it is that they’re feeling. I think could be a problem for patients.
