Patient Reviews
Mar 14, 2018
I appreciated Dr. Wijeratne's professional, caring attitude toward a family member who needed continual care throughout his illness. Not an easy task while practicing in an underserved, rural area. Although the patient load must have been extremely difficult to coordinate, Wijeratne and his office worked diligently in following up with specialists in Dallas who were primarily involved with my family member's pre-transplant care. I absolutely recommend this doctor to anyone seeking medical care.
