He had bad news, but he was kind, patient, and obviously disappointed. (as were we all.) but he also was quick to give guidance as to where to go from here

Dr Brockmeyer and his whole team are incredibly genuine in their care for my child. Competent doesn't feel like a strong enough word to describe Dr Brockmeyer's knowledge and skill. He's absolutely brilliant.

Dr. B. is a skilled and intelligent surgeon and that's what matters. His mind moves much faster than mine, and he lacks bedside manner, but I don't really mind. We communicated well enough.
