Sep 14, 2021
I’ve been seeing Dr. William Sandborns for 9 years. Although he doesn’t have a great bedside manner, he is a genius when it comes to treating Crohn’s Disease. He saved my life, and several of my friends that I have referred. I highly recommend this doctor on moderate to severe CROHNS Disease.
