    Very good experience overall.

    I left feeling like my surgery was in good hands. The surgery was fully explained to me and I'm feeling confident about the surgery.

    Dr. Felger is excellent and she explained the necessity for surgery and the procedure. Very personable! Glad she's my surgeon.
