Patient Reviews
Aug 21, 2024
I was understandably nervous going into my appointment with Dr. Medina as anyone would… thinking I have lung cancer. Dr. Medina could not have been more kind, understanding, and empathetic. He really took the time to listen to me and answer all my questions. He even called me to follow up which (in my opinion) surgeons never do!! I’m so glad to have him on my team.
