Patient Reviews
Sep 11, 2024
I have been a patient of Dr. V for years. He is not surgery happy (meaning he is conservative and only operates if he believes it will improve the quality of life or is a situation that medically has to be done). He is thorough, well spoken and honestly a genius in his field. I trust him so much. From the first time I saw in 2005 and he spoke of what the future would be like and provided examples of best way to proceed - he never was wrong. If it wasn’t for him, I would have no quality of life at 35 or older.
