    Hr was, very friendly and thorough explaining the radiation I was going to receive and how it was going to be delivered showing me the treatment plan work up and yhe palate itself, which I found fascinating.. He also tested my pperiphal vision on both sides. As well as my skkellital muscular strength by having me push back against resistance from himself. He went over my medical history and answered all of my questions. After administering the consent form for the radiation, he introduced Mr to a pyhsist whom I think was named Marley who was from Boise. He went into more detail about the palate to be inserted and several pages of photos of my eye and the 28 seeds of radiation that were going to used. He was also very friendly. I saw him again as I was going into surgery. My whole experience Could not have been better. Please excuse my typing I have use of only one eye and it is the weaker of the two.

    Dr Maity explained the goals of my treatment plan, several different options to reach that goal, and then he let me choose the option that made sense to me.

    It was a great experience meeting with Doctor Maity. He is so knowledgeable and personable and relates so well with his patients. He honors my decisions, due to my age, going forward with any treatments that I don't feel like I want to pursue. Although he said he is easy to contact and there if ever I need further advice.
