Did not feel welcome or that this dr was very interested in my problem, didn’t know whether he was a dr at the time to me it seemed like he was a school kid. Have to say if he is the surgeon I will go elsewhere unless his skills are hidden. Had a hard time with eye contact in conversation. So far I think I would rather see someone else next time, if others are some different.
