Everyone, and I do mean everyone from the receptionists to the nurse to the doctor, was so friendly! I've never felt more welcome in a doctor's office than I did here. Dr. Herline was great. He was very easy to talk to and explained everything thoroughly. I have already told a few family members and friends if they ever need a specialist in this area, they need to come to this practice.

The doctor was extremely friendly, respectful, and seemed to genuinely care. I felt heard, and confident about my next steps for the first time in awhile, but his mannerisms in general just made it a much nicer experience than it has been in the past. Easily some of the best bedside manner I've experienced in a long time.

Given all that I have been through in the last year and a half the only thing he really wanted to talk about was how he wont consider surgery until I loose 40lbs. This has become such a huge issue with male doctors in particular. The answer to everything is you have to loose weight.
