Patient Reviews
Sep 23, 2021
He is a wonderful man ! Our daughter was born with Hirschsprung's disease and he was beyond amazing! He made my husband and I feel so comfortable and he broke everything down for us in a way we could understand. He was VERY patient and kind. He allowed us to contact him on his personal phone during the entire time we were in the NICU awaiting her surgery and including after her surgery. Even today I could text him and he'd respond! I am so very grateful he was our daughter's doctor I would HIGHLY recommend him to ANYONE !!! Bless you Dr. Falk !
