I was just telling a podiatrist that I was working with today about Dr. Musso ( I'm an anesthesiologist).
The story is wonderful testament to Dr. Musso so I will share it here.
When I was in college at Nicholls State University, I developed an infected ingrown toenail which was very painful. Dr. Musso examined me and carefully over about 30 minutes painlessly numbed my toe before removing the offending ingrown nail. He treated me with such care and attention that I felt like l was the most important patient to him. The whole process was painless. His kindness still is crystal clear in my mind 45 years later. I never had another problem with my toe. By the way, probably because I was a college student, the charge was $5 !!
