Patient Reviews
May 19, 2024
He listens. He answers questions. He is on-time. By doing these basic things he showed that he respected me and validated any concerns of mine by addressing them. Dr. Metropol is not just a great surgeon but also a great person exhibiting kindness, humility, and genuine care for his patients. I feel that Dr. Metropol practices medicine because he enjoys helping others unlike most doctors who practice medicine primarily for financial gain.
