Sheldon Randall

"05/09/2002 When I first met Dr. Randall I was very nervous. I wanted him to accept me as a candidate for this surgery. At first he was very quiet and just sort of listened to what I said. Then as the appointment went on he became more open, talking about the procedure, drawing diagrams about how the surgery is performed, etc. In my opinion so far, he is a very good doctor. His staff was very helpful and very nice. I will update more post-op.rn04/22/2007 Thinking back, after I had spoken with other people, in support groups and such, about Dr. Randall, I found that my description of a first meeting with him was pretty typical. I guess he tends to be quiet and introspective when he first meets you, even though it tends to come off as rude, stand-offish, and completely uninterested. I remember leaving that first appointment feeling as if I was just another case file, and not a person. Upon later meetings (or, rather, appointments) with him, I found that he is a very nice, caring, great doctor. He may start off seeming cold, but he definitely warms up to you very quickly. He makes sure to explain everything so you completely understand it all. And if you don't, he isn't annoyed, or frustrated, to have to go over it again -- or if he is, he hides it well. He likes to stay informed on how you are doing post-op as well. He isn't one to cut, and run, so to speak. Many doctors these days are like that -- I've had my fair share. My mom also had the surgery with him (although through a different office location), and if I don't stay in contact, he checks in with her about me (even 5 years later), and has her pass on instructions to have me get in touch with him. To me, Dr. Randall is definitely a diamond in the rough. I'm so glad I stayed with him. I can't say that any of my comments are the regular course of business for Dr. Randall, but they are how things went/go with me, and are my attempt at being honest and objective. "
