"Dr. Sonnanstine did a very thorough job of explaining what the surgery and the after effects are. He seems very capable and confident.
*Can't believe I didn't update this years ago. Dr. S is the best GB doctor EVER! Once you meet him, you will understand there is no chance anyone else could be better. His gentle direct candor is above reproach, as is his entire practice. This man actually cares about his patients, that doesn't end with the surgery, this is why his patients follow him to the ends of the earth, years after their surgery for follow up. The world could do with a lot more doctors and people in general like this man. He takes pride in his work, and I cannot give more respect and regard than I have for him. He is beyond a blessing to his patients, I can't imagine what my life would have been like had I not found him and his team. If it gives you any clue, when he sadly left St. Elizabeth, it took four doctors to replace him, not that they truly could replace him. My sister went to them just a few years ago, and I can tell you her experience was light years away from mine. She would actually reconsider her journey, whereas mine was one of the best decisions of my life, and I would do it again in a heartbeat as long as he was my doctor. I guarantee if he were her doctor, things would be very different for her, but travelling to Columbus was not an option for her.
I would give him a million stars if I could. I promise you will never find a better GB doctor than Dr. Thomas Sonnanstine.
