Patient Reviews
Sep 03, 2021
My father is a patient of Dr. Nishimura. I accompanied my father to his initial appointment. Following the appointment, my father told me that he has never had a doctor who spent so much time with him and listened to what he said. I appreciated that at that first appointment we were not rushed. All our questions we addressed. Over the subsequent years that my father has been a patient of Dr. Nishimura the kind care has continued. Dr. Nishimura has a very pleasant staff as well.
