Patient Reviews
Sep 20, 2023
Dr Wikiera was professional, great bedside manners, very detailed in explaining to me what needed to be done and what to expect. He listened and answered all my questions. He showed me that he cared and wanted to make sure that I understood the surgery that I was under going. My surgery and care seemed to be priority for him and I felt that. My pains are now gone and I am getting around well with just little soreness, thanks Dr Wikiera. I Pray that I won't need another surgery but if I do I will definitely contact Dr Wikiera.
