Patient Reviews
Oct 18, 2016
Dr Plichta made me feel confident and assured that I would be in "good hands". He explained the procedure I was about to have clearly and helped me understand the risks and rewards. After the procedure, Dr Plichta fully explained how everything went and gave me clear instructions for my recovery. Being in the hospital is never a desired situation, but I felt well taken care of during my stay due to the staff and especially Dr Plichta.
