"My first impression of Dr. Rout was that he seemed to be very professional. He answered all my questions, and seemed to be a very knowledgeable. Dr. Rout did my surgery on June 14, 2001.Dr. Rout seems to be a very competent surgion. I have had no complications.His bedside manner was good but very business like. If I were to rate him on a scale of 1 to 10 he would get a 10. Dr. Routs office staff were very good also. The only thing about going for a Dr. appointment, be prepaired to wait a good while. Dr. Rout does emphasize good after care. "
