He has great bedside manner, very attentive, explains everything in great detail, is kind and compassionate. This last surgery was one of my more invasive surgeries and I had a minimum amount of swelling and pain. I had a terrible experience with another doctor in a previous surgery where the anesthesia wore off during surgery and instead of giving me more anesthesia he told me \\\"it's okay I'm almost done\\\". I took that fear into this surgery and Dr Ball was amazing and took my concerns to heart and made sure to put me at ease.\",\"formatted_date\":\"febrero 27, 2025\",\"rating\":\"5\",\"review_url\":\"https:\\\/\\\/www.google.com\\\/maps\\\/contrib\\\/117385159913732603675\\\/place\\\/ChIJU-WAm9tNmogRFaKZIlgdu8A\",\"review_source_name\":\"STUART R.
