She is the most wonderful and caring doctor. Listens, explains and interested in all aspects of my recovery. She does everything possible for me as her patient and I know she truly cares about my health and well being. I feel very lucky that I was able to have her as my surgeon for a major cancer surgery.

was misinformed of having a "tumor" and referred to this dr. She reviewed all medical records, and concluded there was no tumor. She is definitely an one of the better doctors I have visited. Her bedside manner was perfect. I appreciate her taking the time to listen and review all the facts before making a diagnosis.
