    Dr. Fang examined my recent surgery and discussed I'm detail what may be a next step for me. He expertly and quickly removed some remaining staples and redressed my wound all the while discussing my case and answering my questions and concerns. He cleared me to take showers again. He totally knew the status of my case and said he would coordinate with Dr. Morris on my next needed surgery. I left feeling reassured about everything and thankful for the Emory team.
