Patient Reviews
Jan 29, 2024
After years and many many tests. Lots of dismissals from many Dr's. I saw Dr Alpers. He was able to figure out what was wrong without completely dismissing me. He truly has been a blessing to me. He answers my questions and is very upfront and I appreciate that so much. I truly appreciate him and so glad I have him in my journey with my health issues.
