Patient Reviews
Feb 26, 2024
Dr. Tapper made sure I received all the correct tests, then presented with me options to correct my condition. He made sure I understood what was happening and why I needed surgery and the surgery options. His staff was efficient and friendly getting the procedure scheduled and the support with my company's HR before and after. The day of surgery he made sure I knew what was going to happen and what to expect. My aftercare was the same. Would very highly recommend Dr. Tapper.
