Great Doctor
- 2 out of 5 starsReviewed on 2/5/2026
I can’t say that I ever felt comfortable talking to him. I feel like he glassed over some things I should have been more aware of in the surgical process and after. On the other hand, I generally had a really good experience from the rest of the staff.
