My Dr. is not listed. It is Dr. Phillip Schauer. He was excellent. The Best. Seems to be a perfectionist. I was impressed with everything about him. The office staff was nice. There was nothing I did not like about him. I would trust him with any of my loved ones lives. Aftercare is also excellent. He told me about the risks but I felt confident with him. I would rate the 10 (out of 1 to 10). He is great about every aspect of the surgery.
Dr. Philip Schauer - My PCP did a lot of research for another patient and found that Dr. Schauer was one of the best in the country - and one of the few who did the surgery laproscopically, which was important to me for the short recovery time. I liked him well enough. He had performed about 300 surgeries prior to me which was probably most important. His office staff was fine. He is VERY thorough in terms of pre-testing. I had to have many tests done that others have not - and I was pretty healthy prior. I don't know much about his aftercare because I am just one month post op. I have already had two appointments with him and the third is this week. A few days before my surgery was scheduled he asked if I wanted to move it up two days and have about 25 other doctors watching the procedure. I decided that 26 sets of drs. eyes would be better than just 1 so I agreed. The surgery went off with a hitch, no complications so far.
