Mar 16, 2016
He performed my mastectomy 3/2014. His bedside manor is impeccable, he is caring, very easy to talk to & truly a wonderful Doctor. I'm sorry he is no longer in the OC area & will be missed. He made me feel very comfortable through out my ordeal he listened & always made me feel good about myself.
