• Very personable and thoughtful, a pleasure to work with

• Not rushed, happy to clarify information on paracentesis which I hadn't had before. Had some ideas about possibilities going forward.

• I hope his diagnosis works. He said that although it is stage 2 he wants to treat it as stage 3. Its a bit scary. Is this supposed to prepare me for surgery? I hope but if it's too strong I hope he backs off.
