Patient Reviews
Jun 09, 2024
Dr. Rekkas and his staff were just oustanding in the care and compasion they displayed during the hernia repair procedure. Dr. Rekkas took the time to go over my condition pre-op and explained what the remedy would be. After continued discussion with Dr. Rekkas, I was confident in his professionalism and truly trusted him for my surgeon, and was especially intrigued by the DaVinci XI robotic surgery system. I am so thankful that I found Dr. Rekkas an dcan not recommend him enough to future patients. I was treate on June 05, 2024 and 3 days later I am walking as per request, but PAIN FREE, truly amazing. I can not thank Dr. Rekkas enough.
