Patient Reviews
Apr 21, 2023
I originally went to Dr. Salinger for a hernia repair which became a triple hernia repair surgery — performed robotically. Since then, I’ve seen him a few additional times for other situations. Dr Salinger is an excellent doctor who really cares about his patients. In summary, excellent bedside manners, keen on providing top-notch care, his front office is responsive, fast and organized, and he takes the extra time to solve problems, explain details, and put the patient’s wellness and health as a #1 priority. He also moves fast to get fast results which is much appreciated. Highly recommended.
