Patient Reviews
Apr 18, 2024
He’s the most patient, caring and kind person I have ever met. He handled me and my condition well. He’s definitely a great Doctor I would recommend anybody to him. He’s very knowledgeable, understanding and helpful. My experience with Dr Sierra is a 10 out of 10. My post op healing journey is very much going smoothly. I felt little to no pain and the stitches are done very nicely and the cover up is neatly done. God bless you Dr Sierra. You have done a great job!
