    Dr. Patterson was my surgeon and I had a very positive experience. Did you end up choosing somebody?

    I met with Samer Matar and ended up going with a different surgeon because he was absolutely awful. However, if your insurance covers him, I would assume they would cover the other surgeons that work in the program. My surgeon was Farah Husain and she's been amazing. Overall the program through OHSU was in my opinion very good.
