Patient Reviews
Feb 02, 2019
We have been seeing Dr. Sanders for the last 9 years and wouldn’t trust our daughter to anyone else. He is compassionate, knowledgeable and always willing to answer both our questions and our daughters. He was able to work with us on timing for both her surgeries. He knew about the Majec Rods getting FDA approval and waiting until our daughter could get them clearly a medical miracle for her. But most importantly Dr Sanders treats us like family. We will miss him when he goes to Wake Forest!!
