I had high hopes and they were met. Dr Gross is excellent. Prostate issues, urinary system, reproductive issues, etc; she answered all my questions. She transformed me from a disconcerted, ignorant and confused about my health via another provider to confidence about my urological health and dealing it via Dr Gross' guidance.

Legitimately, my wife watched the procedure (it was a vasectomy) and apparently it was like watching a master at work. I also only felt the numbing process, which was amazing as I was really expecting it to hurt a lot.
