Surgical experiences with Dr. Chang?

<< < (2/2)

Angela:
Correct, Robert Jackler was at UCSF with Larry Pitts (who I also consulted with).  Jackler was my lead surgeon; Nicholas Blevins and Stephen Chang were also on the team.

I talked on the phone to Chang.  He was very personable and helpful.  However, I only met him once, during pre-op.  Never saw him again!

CoachC:
Hello, At the time of your inital post, I was about 2 weeks out from my surgery.  I had a translab to remove a grapefriut sized AN.  How it got that darn big is beyond me.  According to my wife, Dr. Chang believed it to be 20+ years old.  In my initail meeting with him in January, he was very helpful, personable, and professional.  I have to admit that I was a bit "strar struck" as I had just seen him in a CK DVD.  We joked a bit about this which gave my wife and I a HUGE sense of comfort.  I had my surgery on Feb 6 of 06.  I saw Dr. Chang the morning of and two days after the surgery.  I have an appointment to see him again in August.  I can't say enough how happy and satisfied I am with my experience.  Not that my opinion really matters to anyone else, but Dr Chang, Dr Blevins, and all their staff have been AWESOME!!!!

Angela:
Hi CoachC:  Good to hear you're doing well. 

One of my co-workers went though Blevins/Chang/Jackler.  He's now 3 1/2 yrs postop and still has great things to say about his follow-up appts with Chang.
