Patient Reviews
Feb 18, 2023
I was 14 years old and I was in a horrible dirt bike accident, By the time the ambulance got me to him, I was dying. I had been hemorrhaging on my brain for 36 hours in a Mexican hospital. The probability of me living at this point was very low. by the time I got to the medical center what Dieffenbach was he wasted no time he knew exactly what to do. I had a blood clot covering my brain and I also fractured bones in my skull. today I am 50 years old and I have a beautiful family. I was clearly at a Y in the road on his operating room table and he made it possible for me to be able to hold the most amazing job ever, that of a mom. this man is an authentic human being, and also a miracle worker.
