Dr. Barba:
So the easiest way to find out about your physician’s experience is to simply ask the questions. One would be to ask questions of the doctor you trust, such as your family practice doctor. Another is to ask the surgeon themselves and to get an idea of what their experience is, how long they have trained, what specialty training they have had, and a third way is to go on the Internet and to look for surveys. You can get a lot of information there as well; what sort of training a doctor has and what their specialties are.
