Dr Foss did my vasectomy. Good consultation, but Poor bedside manner prior when procedure began. I'm a PeriOperative Nurse, and I start IVs all of the time. We do the back of the hand (while Pt has been put to sleep) because, although painful, the hand is easily accessible by anesthesia on the arm board outside of sterile field. Dr Foss starts his IVs himself (why? No idea--probably because he is controlling; customarily the nurse puts in the IV)...and he SUCKS at it. I have GREAT veins, especially on my posterior hand, he couldn't find it! It had Everything to do with how loose his tourniquet was. I obviously pissed his ego off when I questioned why he was trying to start an IV on the back of my hand instead of my AC (bend of arm). My wife noticed that too. trust me, as a periop nurse, these older docs have HUGE PRIDEFUL EGOs. They don't like being told that they're doing something wrong--so I shut my mouth about how loose his tourniquet was (even though it was my body he was operating on). I wouldn't go back--I just needed the procedure done so my wife will be intimate with me again. 2 stars is my trust for him. Old school doctor needs to retire his old ways. read more
