Patient Reviews
Feb 13, 2021
I’ve had severe, chronic tonsillitis for a few years now, and after a recent case I came to see Dr. Hecht. Once I healed he was able to remove my tonsils, and now I’m three weeks post op and he has been completely amazing. He did a great job on the surgery and has made himself available to address all of my concerns post op. I really appreciate Dr. Hecht and I’m excited to be fully recovered and move past all of my tonsil problems!
