DR HETTS' DESCRIPTION OF FINDINGS FROM MY CTSCAN BRAIN WAS DETAILED. SOME OF THE EXPLANATION WAS NOT IN LAYMEN'S TERMS, WHICH MEANT I DID NOT UNDERSTAND. AT THAT POINT HE EXPLAINED CLEARLY SO I COULD UNDERSTAND AS A NON-MEDICAL PERSON. HE WAS PERSONABLE AND PATIENT WITH QUESTIONS FROM ME AND MY HUSBAND.
