Jul 21, 2023
Had my bypass a couple months ago with Dr. Takahashi, she was phenomenal throughout the process, no bs, straight to the point which I love! I’ve seen others complain about “rudeness” but I did not experience that at all. I have had no complications at all, and everything is going great! Thank you so much for the help and continued support!
