Doctor Skinner was very thorough in the pre-op meeting about what conditions and contingacies we might expect in removing my lesion via Endscopy.. I was amazed when I came out of anesthesia to find out he had been able to painstakingly remove the entire growth! Im am so grateful I was refered to him.. He explained everything very clearly show me including what might follow-up care would be.
