I have nothing but good things to say. Any encounter that I've had and dealing with the situation that I have, I have always felt very cared for And thought I was in good hands with whatever I needed done. All of the doctors bedside manners have been extremely attentive and understanding. With as busy as a hospital as it is, I have never once felt, rushed or neglected by anything that I ever felt or needed explained or needed care for.

Dr. Bennett took time to listen and proviide constructive feedback regarding my issue. He explained in detail, the surgical procedure he was recommending and afforded me an opportunity to ask questions. In fact, before I left the office, he invited me to contact him if I had additional questions. To facilitate this, he personally gave me his business card. I wish there were more doctors like him!
