    Dr. Long was the best choice for my surgery. The extra care he took when he encountered unexpected anatomy was evident in his very detailed clinical notes. He took extra time to explain his findings and decision making during the follow-up visit. Top notch care all the way around.

    One of the best doctors I have ever encountered. Not rushed and takes the time one needs to feel comfortable about a health situation.
