Patient Reviews
Mar 17, 2021
Dr. O'Brien saw my son for a pilonidal cyst that had ruptured. My son is is on the autism spectrum and communication for and with him is difficult. Dr. O'Brien excelled both in terms of skilled surgery and post-surgery management, as well as creating a rapport with my son. Due to the nature of this issue, this was particularly important, and very much appreciated.
