Patient Reviews
Sep 15, 2022
I had to do surgery on my thyroid and I was referred by my endocrinologist to Dr. Lew. He was incredibly patient in explaining to me the pros and cons of the surgery. He and the UM staff did care for me in a fantastic way. The scar from the surgery is bearly noticeable. And if you have concerns or need help, they are there to answer and assist you. I highly recommend Dr. Lew.
