Patient Reviews
Dec 07, 2017
A dedicated professional with a solid medical background from CMU-UCLA, Japan and Shenyang China. Explained everything, made certain I understood it and was comfortable with the process and procedure. Follow up afterwards was concise and left no questions unanswered. He was a warm person to talk to, but then his whole staff; Rob, Daffney and Kristen, were warm, friendly but very professional people. I'll go back again unhesitatingly if I live long enough or need his medical advice in the future.
