Patient Reviews
Oct 16, 2023
Communication was clear and easily understood. Surgery went well. Dr. Duerksen and staffs at the office and at surgery center were friendly and helpful. Answered all questions. A printed copy of procedure and following self-care was provided (and needed). Once again, precise, clearly written and understandable. No issues. Will recommend.
