Patient Reviews
Sep 22, 2021
I had surgery to repair a fistula. She was kind, open to questions, explained expectations clearly, and was wonderful in all my interactions. Great bedside manner and professional in every way. I have one more procedure with her to complete the repair and I feel I could be in no better hands.
