Patient Reviews
Feb 26, 2022
Dr. Geer has done 3 surgeries on my husband. We can’t say enough great things about this man. The first two were for cancer and the third for a hernia. His surgical staff at Sarah Cannon are so wonderful and caring. His office staff are great and all are a reflection of Dr. Geer and his caring and expertise.
