In December, I had lower jaw surgery and the results have been fantastic. My swelling reduced very quickly - her talents are impeccable, other doctors were surprised when only a week had passed after my surgery! The swelling around my lips were almost minimal and I got back on my feet pretty soon after. Leading up to the surgery, Ms Pappa took her time to explain in various ways to make sure I understood. She has a great spirit, I really felt that I was in capable hands and her approach reduced my anxieties surrounding the surgery. She is very patient and happy to repeat herself and answer all questions. After the surgery, I was worried about a few (minor) elastic bands, etc. but she didn't make me feel like I was wasting her time (especially as they were to be removed a few days later). She was very validating of all my concerns and had a sensitive approach towards me personally, and got others up to speed on pronouns. Being treated by doctors as a queer person can be difficult but this was never an issue here. This was an overwhelmingly positive experience and I'm glad to have Ms Pappa as my doctor. Highly recommend.
