Outstanding, as always. Mitch is a great doctor who takes the time needed to make sure that everything is understood. He's easy to get along with, and very knowledgeable regarding his profession. He's been my family doc for many years now, as well as a fellow 1976 high school graduate. I've always felt comfortable with him. I only hoping that he NEVER retires!
Thank you for sharing your feedback about Dr. Mitchell Watanabe, MD.
