Jun 27, 2018
Dr. DeFluiter is such a good dr. She has performed 3 surgeries on me. She has always explained in detail what she was going to do and what I should expect afterward. She never rushed during my appts and took her time explaining my procedures and treatment. (I had stage lll breast cancer). I would highly recommend her!
