Patient Reviews
Oct 02, 2016
I was one of Dr. Hessel's patients in October of 2012. Had a total laryngectomy and a subtotal thyroidectomy due to a chondrosarcoma. No complications of any kind. I can even still whistle! Dr. Hessel clearly and concisely explained all my questions and concerns and left no doubt in my mind she was the right doctor for me. No anxiety on my part that I would have great outcome, and I did. If I could give her a ten star rating I would. She and the whole MDA crew are the BEST in my book. :-)
