Jan 12, 2017
Dr Upperman operated on my 12 year old son 5 weeks ago. I have to say the experience was fantastic, all things considered . He walked us through the procedure and made us feel comfortable and confident in his abilities. His surgical team was kind and knowledgeable too. He even gave my son a picture of his appendix as a souvenir, which he LOVED! Bragging rights for this 6th grader! Thank you Dr Upperman for making a frightening situation easy on our family.
