Did anyone have him as their surgeon?  Would love to hear the good/bad.

I have not met him yet because he has cancelled my appointments two times now!  One for family emergency and the other for surgery.  Getting frustrated!   Not sure if I should consider another surgeon or try for a third appointment.

Hi,

Have you looked him up on www.dsfacts.com. That is the site I see given out the most with the list of vetted DS surgeons. Canceling appointments is not a good sign to me at least.

Hope this helps. Thanks, Terri

He is listed on the dsfacts.  I believe he has 30 years experience.  I am just getting anxious because he only sees patients once a week on Tues.  The last two weeks have been cancelled.  Hoping he does not cancel again.

I have no personal experience with Dr. Hares, but he has a good reputation.

I am also sending you a pm.

 Yes, I had him. Very nice.  Nothing bad to say about him. Office staff was easy to deal with as far as insurance approval. I was scared of the open incision but my c-section was worse, pain wise. Im running on fumes can't think of anything else right now. 

If you have anymore questions ask and I'll answer!
