Patient Reviews
Oct 03, 2024
My experience with Dr. Politz was extremely positive and professional. From the first phone call with him to explain the procedure, to his visit the day of and follow-up call that evening, he was straight-forward, explained things clearly and reassured me of all concerns. His office nurses were also professional in handing all details with scheduling, insurance, and pre- and post-op instructions. The surgical staff was excellent, especially the nurse who helped me through my fears of the pre-op scan. This over and above service was very effective and helped me to be a better patient. I would highly recommend Dr. Politz and his team for high-quality professional care.
