Dr. AJ is an amazing surgeon but more importantly a wonderful person who is in his field for all of the right reasons and it shows in his bedside manner. Cancer is scary however trusting your surgeon and team of doctors makes it bearable. I can not say enough good things about Dr. AJ and his staff.
