Dr. Stovsky provided a very good explanation of my urinary retention and a proposed program of treatment. When I was unable to insert a catheter and fainted as a result, he promptly ordered an ambulance to take me to the hospital where I had a full recovery. This abundance of caution was appropriate to the circumstances and I am grateful for his wise decision.
