Patient Reviews
Jan 26, 2023
Does his bedside manner lack? Maybe. I found him very direct, but he saved my life. I was 27 when I saw him, he somehow pieced together I needed a colonoscopy. He found precancerous polyps and a lot of them. If it wasn't for him, they would've grown and maybe even taken my life in 10-15 years. He has a sixth sense. I recommend him to all.
