If I ever moved away from Washington State I would make a special trip to have this Dr perform any kind of surgery that I required over any other surgeon. Absolutely amazing surgeon

Very impressed with Dr. Drosdeck. I always come prepared to Dr. Appointments with pertinent information that I believe the Dr. Will need and with pertinent questions. It was so refreshing to find that Dr. Drosdeck was way ahead of me. He had done his research on me and reviewed everything with me, covering all the things I had ready to share, plus more. He pulled up images of what he would be addressing and walked me through why and how we needed to move forward. I was able to relax, knowing I was in good hands

Dr had already made up his mind before I came in that I would not be treated for my condition. He could have skipped the visit and just put the denial up on my chart. It would have saved me a trip.

Doctor Drosdeck provided excellent communication and provided thorough examination of my incision site. We were able to determine the infection I was experiencing was minor and had a high probability of clearing with the antibiotic I had previously been prescribed. Dr. Drosdeck reminded me to call if there were any additional symptoms or if I felt more antibiotics were needed to continue healing. Thank you!
