I burnt my index finger badly on Easter morning due to a steam burn. Went to Urgent Care in La Pine. They referred me to Bend Plastic Surgery. I thought the reason for the referral was my finger was going to badly scar. After two weeks of taking care of the burn the best I could, but not really knowing what I should do, I called Bend Plastic Surgery and told them I was concerned about my finger. They fit me in the very next day. I found out that Dr. Adam Angeles of Bend Plastic Surgery is the only Burn Specialist and Surgeon in Central Oregon. Dr. Angeles is one of the best doctors I have ever encountered. Very caring, friendly, and he knows all about Burn Care. I was extremely relieved upon leaving his office because I now knew what to do for my burn.

And then when I come in and the Doctor still doesn't know anything or the nurse. That kind of makes me upset I wish somebody would get their facts together.Judy Faulkner14/02/2024
