Patient Reviews
Jan 02, 2021
On April 23, 2015, Dr. Michael Bouvet performed a procedure that the report afterwards described as Hemithyroidectomy on my wife. Today, January 1, 2021, my wife and I were thinking about things to be thankful for as we come out of the challenging and stressful year 2020 and the positive experience with Dr. Bouvet was so powerful these six years ago, that the positive manner, technical skill, and caring approach/bedside manner described by others in this review page, came to the fore in our conversations today. We consider ourselves fortunate to live in an area where Dr. Bouvet practices and where his services are available should the need arise. We would look nowhere else. Thank you for being there for Linda six years ago, Dr. Bouvet.
