Patient Reviews
Apr 22, 2020
He saved my life. I’ve been on dialysis going on 5 years and although I was in a bad mindset when I was diagnosed, he saw beyond that and has always given me the best care. Not only does he encourage you to stay positive during the start of your dialysis journey, he makes sure to go the extra mile while caring for you. I’ve never thought of changing doctors nor have I ever felt as though he doesn’t listen. He puts our needs first and will always always have a heart of gold!
