Patient Reviews
Jan 26, 2024
Dr. Kuwada identified the exact procedure I needed and when I woke up the day after the procedure I experienced immediate symptom relief. He fully explained why the procedure was necessary and how it would be done. The Surgical Fellow (MD) who also saw me in the hospital was a GREAT addition to his team. His staff from front office to his nursing team are amazing. Appointments, questions and procedure all handled in a very timely manner. Excellent and compassionate care!
