URMC partners with Press Ganey, to survey our patients about all aspects of their care experience. We are now putting this pertinent information at your fingertips by displaying star ratings for our providers along with anonymous patient comments on our website.

Dr. St. John was excellent. He explained everything I needed to know and made it easy for me to understand prior to surgery and after surgery and for my post op appointment. I am very happy with the results. I had absolutely zero pain after the procedure.
