    Felt very rushed during the visit, not worthy of the visit. Lots of technical terms then asked if I had questions. Said no due to feeling rushed and felt I was dismissed.

    Dr. Rosso was clearly and expert in hand related problems and conveyed a lot of information in a fairly concise way. At the same time, on multiple occasions he made sure to ask if I had questions (and answered them thoroughly).

    Dr. Was Very Businesslike and clinical, gave good run down of staid of arthritis and joint deformation, but was slightly ( had some amount of actual concern) cold in his delivery that there are not a lot of positive options. And seemed very intent on ending the visit asap. He seemed to do a good job professionally, but on a scale of 1-10 on human compassion, suppprt and care, maybe a 4?

    He was pretty matter of fact about my condition. He seemed a bit in a hurry to get to his next patient.

    The Dr.got me scheduled for surgery as soon as he could because of the pain I was in and the severity of my trigger thumb. I am so appreciative of that!!

    Dr acted disinterested in my problem. Gave me information as if he was bored and he was stating it from a memorized text.
