I have had a lot of surgeries, and my anesthesiologists have never made an impression on me the way Dr Golpanian has. In most cases my intro to the anesthesiologist is so brief that I don’t even remember who they are. Dr Golpanian is one that Ill never forget. He called me the night before surgery and when I didn’t pick up he sent a text with the goal of introducing himself and easing any anxiety I might have. The morning of surgery he came in and chatted with me about what was going to happen and what to expect. He also took the time to get to know me, ask about my kids. I can tell that he genuinely cared that I had a good experience in his care. He cares to establish trust. I wish all anesthesiologist went above and beyond like this because it really does help patient’s anxiety so much. After Surgery, he took the time to text to make sure I was doing ok. I can’t say enough great things about how he helped make a stressful day a lot easier.
