Patient Reviews
Apr 18, 2024
I’m not sure what happened for people with the unflattering reviews, but people are also so quick to insult behind the screen of a computer so who knows. I cannot imagine anyone not liking Dr. Dakurri. He is kind, patient, and truly authentic in his caring for the patient. Further, he was recommended to me by friends in health care, friends who have been operated on by him, and various strangers become friends in the community based on their breast cancer diagnosis and having Dr. Dakurri as their surgeon. So, all in all I have heard nothing but glowing reviews about Dr. Dakurri and my own experience has been lovely.
