Aug 05, 2024
Dr Skaja came in and explained every aspect , yet allowed me to make the final decision to remove my appendix. Surgery was issue free and recovery going well . While focusing on my pain needs after surgery he did not over medicate but was available to address any concerns . He promptly returned my call personally to check on me ,which I greatly appreciated. I would recommend Dr Skaja to anyone in need of his set of surgical skills . He is also very compassionate :) thank you for making a scary crisis easy to manage .
