Patient Reviews
Aug 23, 2024
Dr Wolfgang is a straight up rock star. Period. He saved my life, his team was attentive, I attribute my complete recovery to his expertise. Did he hold my hand? No, that’s not his job, but he was kind and empathetic, and for crying out loud he’s the best in the world so if you think he’s going to hover over you like a hen you’re crazy, he’ll save you, then he’s got other people to save! But he is your surgeon for life, and he means it! I would never let another surgeon touch me unless Wolfgang approved. He’s the one.
