"The best bedside manner I have ever encountered in a physician. He made a very scary surgery a good experience. I had total faith in him and he made me understand and feel comfortable with my procedure. He also worked with my insurance which we had issues with. His office staff was a great help and made things move smoothly."

"An excellent doctor and surgeon with wonderful people skills. She is extremely personable and makes you feel very comfortable. She explains things and answers questions in terms that are understandable. I totally trust her judgment and recommendations. I felt very blessed that I was under the care of this surgeon."

"I don't like surgery, but he made me feel comfortable, I really trust him. He was very patient and most Doctors don't understand how important patience is."

"Everyone in the office was very professional, and very nice to all the patients coming in."

"A very down to earth doctor. I feel that I can trust what he tells me which is also told in such a way that I can understand. From the time I first met him I felt that I knew him personally. He was very professional. I do not believe that I could have found a better doctor."

"The office was professionally laid out displaying a relaxing atmosphere. The free coffee and actual tables to sit at is a welcome sight. Having to fill out forms on your lap is quite uncomfortable and has been eliminated with this offices decor. Waiting time appears to minimize in such a relaxing atmosphere."

"My experience with the Dr. and the Association of South Bay Surgeons was EXCELLENT! I am very impressed with their level of customer (patient) service, patient care, and "beside manner". I am also a health care provider. Therefore, I am extra critical of patient care and patient contact, HIPPA compliance, informed consent, beside manner, and clinical confidence. The Dr. exceeded all my expectations and so did his staff and co-workers. I am so impressed and pleased, that today my office is having a staff meeting so that I can impart this level of care to my patients!"

"During a very stressful time, the Dr. was thorough and calming. I felt very confident going into surgery that I had made the right decision on the doctor and the procedure."

"Good attitude, helpful, explained diagnosis simply and thoroughly. I really did appreciate the call on a Friday evening at home to discuss my options; otherwise it would have been a very stressful weekend. Thank you for taking the time to listen to my concerns and answer clearly, in laymen terms. After that conversation, I felt confident I was moving in the right direction."

"Your calm and compassionate nature comes across in your rapport with your patients. For someone who has never experienced any kind of surgery before, I was very anxious about what to expect. You calmed my anxieties about my breast surgery and I left feeling more informed and aware of what to expect on my surgery day."

"Office staff very kind and friendly, helpful when I had insurance issues and they worked the problems out. I did not have to. In the past with other physicians it was my problem and I had to do all the work with the insurance company. Not the case here. The office staff contacted the insurance company and myself, and made it work. I was so grateful for all they did, and they did it with pleasure."

"A wonderful doctor who is quite knowledgeable in her field of expertise. She has a great bed side manner and has a pleasant, down to earth personality. Would highly recommend her to friends."

"Overall everyone was very professional and friendly. The staff goes out of their way to try to accommodate your needs."

"One of the best and most caring doctors, I've ever met. When I come to see the Dr., I know I'm in good hands, and I have complete trust in him. I wish there were more doctors, or people for that matter like him. Thank you for giving me this opportunity to express my gratitude about my favorite doctor."

"I felt very confident about my decision to plan my surgery with this Physician. I did extensive research on my type of surgery, issues and options. He readily listened to and advised me in a very friendly, one on one manner. He is definitely a credit to the medical profession and your Association of South Bay Surgeons."

"Amazing surgeon. Very professional, very compassionate.. My other physician was right about her unbelievable talent and dedication."
