"There are three aspects that ultimately led me to choose Dr. Synder; Compentence, Compassion, and Committment to Outcomes. Compentence is more than just how many surgeries you performed or new gadgets you use, it is a display of a persons command of the profession that they are in, and ability to learn and better themselves on an ongoing basis. Compassion deals not only with connecting to patient, but helping the patient understand for themselves what the best direction to go is. Finally, Committment to Outcome deals with the pre-op, operation, and post-op activities and follow-up that is required to help ensure good outcomes, and empower patients to achieve their goals.rnrnI've seen all three of these traits in Dr. Synder which makes me feel at complete ease at his ability to help me achieve my goals.rnrnIf I had any criticism, it would be that since my first appointment, and I was given my mission to loose 50 pounds, I have not heard a word from Dr. Synder or his staff. I would think a follow-up call to find out if I was still alive would have been nice.rn"
