Dr Chinichian listened to me and answered all my questions. After my appointment was over, I had additional questions and he was nice enough to come out to the lobby to talk to me. I really appreciated that.
Was very thorough in explaining the options for the surgery. Was very patient explaining anything I had questions on.
Excellent service.
