Dr. Luthringshausen did my hysterectomy and endometriosis surgery with the davinci robot. I had a very serious and complicated case, plus I had lots of questions. This doctor actually listens and welcomed my 15+ questions before the surgery. I also had some weird experiences after surgery but she fit me into the schedule and made sure I was okay. I found out some things about my health that aren't great but I think it is something that I can make changes and improve. I'm glad she was honest with me and treated me.
I am still recovering but I am so happy I did this. I was very scared before surgery and had second thoughts beforehand but her nurses are very nice and the patient portal helps me see my test results. If I forget what was said during the appointment or phone call, I can see things on the portal as many times as I need to. I get the feeling this doctor genuinely cares about her patients and that is refreshing.
This doctor also doesn't have you wait forever and ever and that is very helpful. It is nice that my time is valued too.
The only thing I think could have been improved are maybe printed surgical instructions. She wrote them out for me instead but it might be helpful to give patients a resource as well as the link to the hospital's surgical instructions on the web. Maybe she just prefers a personal touch but I was hoping that there wasn't something missing on the handwritten instructions.
Was it helpful to you?
