Patient Reviews
Jul 27, 2023
I was shocked to find out she was a woman. Made me nervous at first. She came in with a huge smile and a very professional demeanor. All the nervousness left immediately she was very personable. Her ability as a surgeon shows the next morning I expected worse was very surprised. I had a bad hernia with a displaced bladder which I'm sure took some poking and prodding. I'm sure not a easy fix but, again sore but not what I expected. Id recommend her to do anything for friends or family. I'm very impressed!
