Sep 20, 2024
He was so patient, caring and gentle with my daughter. He explained everything in terms she could understand and answered any questions she wanted to ask as well as any questions we had. His bedside manner was wonderful. He was never rushed. The whole surgical experience was wonderful. I would highly recommend him.
