Patient Reviews
Dec 30, 2024
paperwork filled out. I dropped off the paperwork on 10/23 and did not receive a response until 11/5 after sending multiple messages to his office. After careful consideration, I decided to cancel my surgery which was scheduled in 3 weeks. I could not confidently move forward. I had to inform my work/HR of the changes and cancel my help arrangements. I was deeply disappointed in Dr. Takenishi's office staff.
