Patient Reviews
Mar 29, 2024
We can't thank enough Dr. Duma and his We can't thank Dr. Duma and his staff enough for the special, excellent care they have provided. From the very first vis staff for the special, excellent care they have provided with my husband’s brain operation. From the very first visit, he not only explained clearly and in lay terms what the surgery was about and how it was going to improve my husband’s quality of life but took his time easing our concerns and answering our questions. Before and after the surgery they were in constant communication to keep us informed. The aftercare was top notch, Zoe his PA promptly answers any questions we may have, Ashley is friendly and helpful. Carol, his office manager went above and beyond working with our insurance and answering my questions. We are very lucky our neurologist recommended Dr. Duma to treat my husband’s hydrocephalus and even though we live in Florida, we are willing to travel to continue your be under his care. Thank you Dr. Duma!!!
