CRS profile, please look and see if you see any red flags?

Postby lurker53 » 05 Oct 2011, 16:14

Seeing this doc Monday, does she sound qualified enough? Any red flags experienced boardies can see? She is listed as a CRS and General Surgeon.

There are three other doctors in the practice that have academic positions at fine schools in the area (UConn, Dartmouth) and this woman does not, does that matter? I just don't want to pick the wrong surgeon.

Thanks a lot! I found her, but where do you find what people said? Do you have to register to get that info?

found out how to find them, she doesn't have any. The most experienced doc in her practice has only two so I guess people don't get a lot. My previous CRS has two and both are four stars out of four and he hasn't done a whole lot for me so far.
Maybe I'll just start seeing new ones every week!

Wor u guys still have that site to find out what ppl say abt them, we don't have that in Sg! For me, I just go to specialist at the hospital. But thank god, though my specialist is only a consultant, he's a v patient person n v careful with me when doing digital examination.
