Good
Dr. Harlow actually didn't mention any possible complications or risks to treatment. I didn't think to ask.
Dr. Harlow is a man of few words, but his kindness and soft spoken demeanor helps tremendously when dealing with fears of possible recurrence of life threatening disease. He was fantastic 15 years ago and continues to be today. We are so lucky to have him here in Vermont.
This was a somewhat perfunctory post-surgical followup where all was going well and not much to discuss. Dr. Harlow is no nonsense and not very chatty, but all was quite adequate and he was fine.
I was given paperwork to complete prior to my appointment. I had listed some concerns that the questions prompted. The provider never looked at the paperwork so I brought it up. And when I told him what was going on and what I was doing, he said it looked like I was doing all the Things that needed to be done
Dr. Harlow is efficient - yet caring. To the point.
Absolutely no complaints
Pretty straightforward visit so no need for questions
Dr Harlow has always included me in the decision making. He's very respectful, kind, compassionate and thorough. I am forever thankful for him!!
Dr Harlow is THE BEST!! He is not one of these aggressive surgeons who thinks he has all the answers, but instead he is a real person who is kind and funny. He tells me right away what he finds instead of having some tech do the work where they can't tell you if something is wrong, but you know...
Dr. Harlow is simply THE Best. Smart, caring, clear and truly wonderful.
