Patient Reviews
Jul 15, 2024
Dr. Henderson performed an emergency craniotomy on June 7. A tumor and large mass were discovered after an MRI. She was very attentive and answered our questions, was caring and kind. I have had no pain after surgery and tumor was completely removed. Mass was biopsied and sent to Mayo for results. Still waiting on results from Mayo, but Dr. Henderson has called and was told they were backlogged. She truly is a gifted surgeon.
