Aside from the inevitable discomfort and awkwardness of any procedure you may endure, this was a fantastic experience. The entire staff was friendly and helpful. On the initial visit, I was fully aware of what to expect and how to prepare for the upcoming visit. Dr. Russ was extremely polite and made sure I knew every option available by explaining the methods and treatments for each. This was very helpful in making a decision and after leaving the office after my procedure, I had zero questions. I knew exactly what to expect and what to do. When he called me that night to check up on me(yeah, he did that), I knew I had made the right choice by deciding to use these guys. I wish I could give six stars.
