Would have preferred a more formal list of "next steps". Who was to do what, by when. The details in MyChart, the AVS and/or the Visit Notes are not clear as to what happens next

Dr. Mann was extremely helpful in explaining the plan. Had hoped for a more definite time as to the date for the surgery that I'm to have.

I am so impressed with my experience discussing the issues of my health with Dr Mann and his team! Dr Mann is an excellent communicator! His thoughts are very organized, descriptive and clear. He also listened very closely and showed genuine empathy. Same for the other 2 people on the call.
