Patient Reviews
Apr 02, 2024
Dr Nishimura performed a flawless ESD procedure on me. While other surgeons ( not at MSKCC) seemed overwhelmed at my condition, Dr Nishimura had the experience and skills to accomplish a very difficult task. He also is very polite and informative which helped put our minds at ease. MSKCC is one of the best hospitals in the world, and Dr Nishimura is right up there as well.
