Patient Reviews
Feb 08, 2022
Great. Saw Dr. Martin for multiple visits and operations. Each time he explained the risk and rewards surgery could offer thoroughly. Very thoughtful and is willing to think outside the box when an immediate solution is not available. He also spends time with each appointment, rather than rushing from each appointment possibly missing critical information. While also, at the same time, building trust and confidence between the patient and doctor. Thank you.
