Imaging

I went in to have a biopsy of a lump on my jaw under my ear. Of course I would be nervous. Its my face...and a needle going into my face. When the man called my name he had a big smile on his face and shook my hand. He explained to me step by step what was going to happen. He asked if I was comfortable. He asked if he could do anything to make me more comfortable. There were 4 people in the room with me including the doctor. The doctor told me what he was doing at every step. He spoke to me the whole time as did everyone else. When he started to numb the area he told me it was going to burn. I couldnt see anyone but I could hear them. And as the needle went in I felt one of them take my hand. That person held my hand until the numbing set in and I loosened my grip. They all encouraged me and told me how well I was doing. They joked with me about the ice coffee I was looking forward to. One of them spoke to my sister in the waiting room twice during my half an hour procedure and made her laugh when he told her I would need to hold the side of my face while drinking the iced coffee so it didnt spray out of the holes. (Lol) Which made her less nervous. Keep up the good work Dr Raju, kevin,stacey,and Richard you are AMAZING! and I appreciate you
