    I love how all of the nurses, NP and doctor's and anesthesiologist are very kind and patient with us. They answered all questions and attentive to our needs. We love them and we appreciate all their work. Kudos to Dr. Schuster for being to great on what he does. He was very calm and reassuring. It was very nice to talk to someone who has done the procedure alot of times and was also quick. It was barely 10 minutes and he came out saying It was done and that my daughter Is now being taken care and we will be called once she's ready to see us.
