Patient Reviews
Apr 22, 2020
This man works miracles. I have put mine and my family's lives in his hands many of times. Where other surgeons would have not even have tried he has worked miracles he tells you I was it is and as I'd say works miracles. He has done countless surgeries on myself on my son and I'm my mother. Other than my orthopedic surgeon he's the only one I allow to do surgery on me
