Dr. Morris and Dr. Gibbs both examined me. Dr. Morris explained specific surgical aspects and complexities of my case in a way I could understand. I agreed with Dr. Morris' idea for extra team inputs, radiation oncology, as to the best sequence of treatment.

This care provider did not look at the information from my MRI or any of the other other physicians notes for what I came to him for this physicians only looked at X ray notes and then he gave me his opinion then I asked him how far back do Emory keep information on file because this physicians surely did not take time to look at any information that was recently in my file I really was so disappointed because I have never been to any Emory physicians that left me heart broken to see Emory as the top Hospital with the best physicians to me saying and confused at what is going on at Emory
