Dr. Barahimi took time to answer my questions; however, as a senior citizen over75 I would have liked for her to put my chair back and make me more comfortable as she explained the procedure. What happened was an explanation of procedure, quick chair lay back, then immediately she snipped off the small growths on my eyelids. The whole thing took maybe 1 minute. Construtive Criticism: When working with senior citizens take just an extra minute or two more to go over the procedure, get the patient comortable and slow everthing down just a hair. By the time we are in our 60s, 70s and 80s most of us experience emotional unsteadiness that can be exacerbated by hurry and not completely understanding explanations. I know Dr. Barahimi had many surgeries to do that day, and I don't mean for her to go so slowly that others wait a longer time. What I am saying is just to take into consideration aging patients need a little more time to process what is happening. Otherwise, Dr. Barahimi's greatest asset is the wonderful, warm personality she exudes. I understood everything she said. I just needed a few more seconds to let it all sink in.
