I was very concerned about the possibility of another surgery on my stomach hernia but the doctor gave me a number of options and explained each of them thoroughly. I was delighted to hear that I would not need immediate surgery and could talk over these with my family before making a decision. I left with my concerns much diminished. It was all very helpful.
