I really like Dr Phillips! He is extremely good “bedside” manner. Believes in giving ALL information good and bad. I love the openness of information. All things that should be considered before a major operation is given. He is kind, thorough and also gives you all the support you need. Calling my pain doctor to make sure that I am going to be given full support from my other doctors, to me is above and beyond! Will give update after surgery.
