    At this point in time, I think it best to hold off on any suggestions until I get to know the health team better. Fifteen minutes with them is like judging a book by its cover. I would rather read the book to find out if it is any good.

    Dr. Flanagan and his supporting staff, they do a wonderful job. He has been my urologist for several years and I've enjoyed a personal relationship when I go into his office because he's personable. He is very helpful. He gives the medical professional advice. He also makes suggestions and that makes me, that puts me at ease. And I certainly enjoy the professional relationship that we have. I trust him. I trust him. He will be doing a procedure for me and I'm looking forward to it with ease only because it is him who will be doing it. Thank you.

    Appointments ARE NOT AVAILABLE if have any issues to be seen by Dr. Flanagan. Follow up appointment for an issue that needs to seen for is cannot be seen for ~four (4) months. That is just crazy and considering moving to a practice I can actually be seen. Happy to discuss.
