Patient Reviews
May 01, 2023
I've had 2 surgeries that were life threatening done by her. She knows her stuff and was great with seeing me daily in the hospital and aftercare. I love how she collaborates with colleagues and her residents. They are being well trained. Her bedside manner and compassion leave a little to be desired. I was in quite a bit of pain and I don't feel she appreciated that significantly. But as far as her knowledge and expertise, there is no one better in Santa Barbara!
