What questions should you ask your colorectal surgeon to determine if he has the qualifications and experience to treat you effectively? I am an anxiously shy and inexperienced person who has a lot trouble finding her voice especially when she really needs it. I'm afraid if I ask the surgeon any questions they will become angry with me and that could interfere with my treatment.

Websites that can help people find Drs along with their ratings:
