I found him to be direct, compassionate and I am very pleased with him and my surgery. Thanks for all your input and well wishes. So glad its all behind me!!
Vicki, I don't know you, but it's always nice to hear that someone is doing well after facing a medical problem. God speed your complete and successful recovery!

After 3 months, Dr. Han reversed the colostomy and I gratefully got my rear end back. Dr.Han was professional, compassionate and kind. The hospital staff was very competent too.

My husband was my advocate and I believe we all need someone to watch over us whenever we are being treated at any hospital. He kept people on their game.
Jeanette, sorry to be hearing of the problem you've been through. I'm happy for you that like with Vicki, the worst of it is all behind you now. I hope that it hasn't put a damper to your golf game. I also hope that your husband is doing well too!
