Patient Reviews
Jun 13, 2023
When I found out that I needed surgery, my doctor highly recommended Dr. Dennis Vega. My doctor said that Dr. Vega is an extremely talented surgeon. At our first meeting, Dr. Vega thoroughly explained what was involved, and what I could expect from surgery. He patiently answered my questions in a way that I could easily understand. I found him to be knowledgeable, patient and kind. I went into the surgery less nervous than I thought I would be, confident that I was in very good hands. My surgery was successful, and my recovery was painless and uneventful. I am very grateful to him. Without hesitation, I highly recommend Dr. Vega!
