I don't believe we even spoke to the actual surgeon. I'm not sure if it was a resident or somebody else in the practice, but we were speaking to the person who did the surgery and the person we spoke with, was not very familiar with my dad's situation and didn't seem interested in hearing about new problems that were vascular related. So, we were kind of disappointed with the experience and typically have a better experience when Dr. Story is the actual person we're talking to.
