Patient Reviews
Mar 02, 2023
Coming in by ambulance unconscious, she was assigned to me. Didn't meet until after the operation. I found her warm, caring, and easy to talk with, and even more so at the follow-up appt...BTW, she did a great surgical job as well [emergency surgery for hernia and serious internal bleed]...minimal pain or scaring involved.
