Dr. Caughman is as pleasant and professional as a provider can be, while maintaining both efficiency and professionalism in his care. I was actually surprised that this day did not include a "teaching time," something I believe Dr. Caughman is very attuned toward. I expressed my love of being part of a teaching hospital setting, and at any time, he is welcome to include a student/resident to observe or a fellow to practice under his supervision. I am gratified to be even a small part of developing the practitioners of the future.For many patients, a needle injection can be stress inducing. Dr. Caughman used a 30 gauge needle (very tiny), and as a patient who has had injections of many types over the years, I found this injection to be no more bothersome than a mosquito bite. Actually, it is less bothersome, since the after effects are not irritating :)
