Dr. Hirai is best when it comes to Minimally Invasive Surgery. He is very gentle and caring which gives you confidence for surgery. His staff especially Taniya are very friendly and helpful. She made me very much comfortable before surgery and took good care of me after surgery as well. I recommend Dr. Hirai for surgery
