Patient Reviews
Mar 09, 2024
I suffer from PTSD - over 45 years of seeing my mother go through over 100 surgeries throughout her life. Watching her lay in a Hospital bed on most holidays, struggling just to get through the next surgery. This review means a lot to me because I just picture myself going through what she went through.I recently had the pleasure of visiting Dr. Dholakia just this past week. From the moment I stepped into the clinic, I felt welcomed and at ease. Dr. Dholakia is not only incredibly knowledgeable, but also excellent communicator. During my appointment he patiently explained the whole process from beginning to end. His ability to break down complex medical information into understandable terms was truly commendable. The staff deserves applause. From the reception to the nurses, everyone was warm, friendly and efficient. I appreciate how they made me feel comfortable through my visit.In summary, I thank you for the exceptional care, I wholeheartedly recommend this Clinic.
