When my biopsy came back positive for uterine cancer, I knew that my regular activities were on hold for a while. I immediately called Dr. Fine's office for an appointment. His scheduler called me back and said that his appointment calendar was full, but he decided to take me as a patient anyway and would re-arrange the schedule.
I saw him within a couple of days, and we scheduled my surgery. I was expecting a gruff, no-nonsense doctor who would scold me about being obese. Instead, I found a caring and even fun, real person who gently took my life in his hands. He spent time and took a genuine interest in me. I've had some good doctors, but he is the absolute best. Along with his wonderful staff, I felt cared for and secure.
I asked Dr. Fine if he objected to my family praying for me right before surgery, and he let me know he was brought up in the Baptist church and was very comfortable with prayer. His wife was from Lubbock, where my daughter lives, and he said he was used to all the Texas Tech grads going nuts over Tech. He just fit seamlessly into my life as it was, and I'll always appreciate his care. I would tell anyone that he is the most meticulous surgeon in Dallas, and he's also the most caring doctor I know. And yes, it's true he does love chocolate!
