Nov 11, 2021
Recently had surgery by Dr. Tikellis and I can’t say enough about his extreme professionalism, exceptional credentials and knowledge of my procedure, recovery and explained in great detail what I should expect. He is so good, I don’t have a scar at my incision site. The nicest surgeon I ever met. Highly recommend Dr. Tikellis without hesitation.
