Patient Reviews
Apr 30, 2020
Dr Tanaka is a God send! She is highly skilled and very personable. Dr Tanaka took excellent care of my daughter Kaitlyn through all of her surgeries. Always so understanding and would explain so much. Kaitlyn loved her and her staff at MU, we become very close with them all. Dr Tanaka met us in the lobby of hospital to adjust her shunt the morning of prom, even brought her pastries. For graduation they sent her flowers and when they found out she was going to have chemo they fixed her a chemo gift. I could go on and on how terrific she is and will never be able to Thank Dr Tanaka enough!

What’s a board certification and why is it important that my provider has one?
