Patient Reviews
Nov 10, 2023
He was very compassionate and caring, yet blunt enough to make him understand the seriousness of the problem. He even went as far as to take some helpful measures to keep him from smoking prior to surgery. Never really got a chance to thank him, this was at grand strand in the spring of 2019. I guess my husband was on the younger side for something like this, so he had a rough recovery, but he's here!
