Throughout his life, Wayne has known a lot of doctors. That\u2019s not only because of his personal ailments \u2014 before his retirement, he was a personal injury attorney specializing in medical malpractice. Of all the physicians and surgeons he\u2019s known, he says Dr. Scott \u201cis one of the best.\u201d<\/p>\n
Wayne was referred to Dr. Scott by his ophthalmologist. He had an entropion, a condition that caused one of his lower eyelids to turn inward. Entropions can be painful, but Wayne\u2019s case, luckily, was not. Still, he didn\u2019t care for the appearance and hoped Dr. Scott could help. <\/p>\n
Dr. Scott performed the surgery in his office with Wayne under local anesthesia. Watching the surgery take place may sound scary, but it was reassuring to Wayne. \u201cI consider it the best way to have surgery, so you know what\u2019s going on,\u201d he says. \u201cIt\u2019s better than just guessing.\u201d <\/p>\n
Throughout the surgery, Dr. Scott remained attentive and communicative. \u201cHe told me everything that was going to happen from the beginning,\u201d Wayne says. \u201cHe said, \u2018You\u2019re going to feel this\u2019 or \u2018I\u2019m going to stitch up that section there.\u2019\u201d When it came to the recovery, he adds, \u201cI didn\u2019t really notice it. I did what he said, and everything turned out okay.\u201d <\/p>\n
Wayne is a Marine veteran who served during the late 60s and early 70s. After leaving the service, he became a lawyer in Washington, D.C., where he practiced medical malpractice law and became a senior partner at his firm. Wayne enjoys spending time with his wife and playing golf. Though he stopped playing tennis a few years ago, he\u2019s quite accomplished. \u201cWe went to nationals five times,\u201d he says. <\/p>\n
He\u2019s also a bit of a bookworm, having read about 20 books on the Revolutionary War, and more recently switching to tomes on the cosmos and the universe. \u201cIt\u2019s really interesting,\u201d he says. \u201cYou can\u2019t believe there are things like this in the world. There are particles that can be in two places at once!\u201d <\/p>\n
| \nIf Wayne needs additional eyelid surgery, he vows to return to Dr. Scott for the work. \u201cOn a scale of 1\u201310, I think they\u2019d get a 10,\u201d he says. \u201cThey were perfect, and everything was top-notch.\u201d\n<\/td>\n | <\/td>\n | \n![\"dr\"](\"https:\/\/www.eyeplasticmd.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/06\/dr.jpg\") ![\"sign\"](\"https:\/\/www.eyeplasticmd.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/06\/sign-300x49-1.png\") <\/div>\n<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<\/tbody>\n<\/table>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"Throughout his life, Wayne has known a lot of doctors.
