    Dr. Heckman was with me the least amount of time, but was impressively professional, describing what he was doing, and answering any question. I felt he was an excellent surgeon. The PA spent more time before and after, including tending the wound. As to decisions about care, the procedure had been set, though the PA provided instructions about post-surgery care at home.

She took plenty of time to answer my questions and verbally go over the written Instructions on aftercare.
