To me, being a good surgeon is not just about having meticulous technique, but also about guiding my patients through the entire surgical process. This includes answering all of their questions and concerns to put them at ease before surgery and helping them through the post-operative healing stage. I hope that my team and I can assist in making the entire surgical experience as smooth as possible. - Latha Pasupuleti, MD.
