Patient Reviews
Sep 21, 2024
On my first visit (March 2016) he diagnosed me with what I had been battling for a good portion of my life. From that point on I knew I was in caring and compassionate hands. Following non-invasive attempts to resolve my condition, we began to look at alternative means such as surgery. His calm demeanor and professionalism led me to surgery which indefinitely cured me of my condition.
