B.S. Google

I had a zoom meeting set up in the afternoon with Dr. Sekula. He was scheduled to do an operation & was afraid it might run into my meeting so he called me first thing in the morning to see how I was feeling & if I needed anything. Besides being an excellent surgeon, he makes you feel very comfortable.
