Dr. Vercoutere is SO professional and has a wonderful bedside manner. I had to get a minor surgery, but the doctor I spoke to before (Harvard med student with no bedside manner - a "machine") made me feel so uncomfortable about the process, pain and billing with insurance. Exactly the opposite with Dr. Vercoutere - I was in and out of Greenbrae Surgery Center (also, amazingly professional) in less than 2 hours - and that includes having been put to sleep with a general anasthesic and taking time to recover. I event went straight to my kids ballet after! I didn't have an ounce of pain, never used my pain prescription, scarring appears like it will be minimal, and Dr. Vercoutere graciously followed up the next morning to make sure I was doing great. I am quite positive that by following my instinct, I made the right choice and wouldn't think twice about coming back to Dr. Vercoutere in the future. read more
