Patient Reviews
Apr 23, 2024
Dr. Murdakes is unlike any other physician I have visited. She is an excellent listener, an expert in her field, and gave concrete suggestions as to how I can maintain my health. She spent time with me and I felt she truly cares about my health. She answered all of my questions. I would give her a '20' on a 5 point scale. She is a physician that should be overcompensated for her expertise and patient approach. We need to do whatever is necessary to keep physicians like Dr. Murdakes to remain in practice. She is second to none and everyone deserves positive recognition for their unending dedication to their patients. Even though dealing with CKD is not pleasant, I am beyond thankful that our paths crossed. There are not enough words to truly thank her for all she is doing for her patients.
