Patient Reviews
Jul 08, 2023
Dr. Ambe saved my life. He is professional, through, thoughtful and explained things well. I went straight from the ER into an OR room. A week later I required an additional surgery and he was just as great as the first time. He demanded excellence from my nurses, made sure my pain was managed and made me a private patient for follow ups, instead of me seeing the rotating acute care surgeons. The only thing I will not accuse him of is having gentle hands at times. Although, when he is involved in the situation that’s usually the least of a persons concerns.
