"I have met Dr. Magnuson twice and although very busy he has been very affable and put me to ease at once! I have heard from other post-op patients of his through a Support Group for Dr. Magnuson's patients. All of the comments that I heard so far have been glowing! He even made time to meet my mom, who is my main support person and she felt much better about my fate after meeting Dr. Magnuson. My surgery is scheduled for next week on 5/13/02. After my surgery and recovery period I will have more information to report about my surgeon. "
