Thank you so much for your kindness and compassion during my surgery visit. I had heard only good things about your office and I was very pleased with the ‘personal’ touch you show your patients.
I just want to thank all of you for being so nice to me and treating me really good. It’s people like you all that make life worth living and make people want to go on. Again, thank you for everything you done for me. I will never forget your kindness. Love all of you so much. Thank you!
Not only were the staff very kind and caring, but are a real credit to their profession. I was very impressed with the way they relate to their patients. Thank you for taking the time to explain everything to us. Your staff is very wonderful. You should be very proud of them.
Thank you all for your care and expertise during our recent skin surgeries. Everything was really appreciated for our speedy recoveries.
It has been a little over a week since my last subcision procedure and things are going and looking great! I want you to know how much I greatly appreciate your help, kindness, and concern. You are one of the few doctors who leaves you with the pleasing impression that they honestly care about their patients.
Thank you for doing a great job on getting cancer off my eyelid and out the corner of my eye. It has healed well! Every one of you in the office treated me well and took good care of me and I really appreciate that. I'm very pleased that my eye is alright and I hope you can see how is has healed. Thank you so very much!
A very relaxed and comfortable procedure. I was treated in a very kindly and gentle manner which made the whole process very comfortable. I am having a speedy recovery showing good care and a successful procedure.
How can I possibly explain how much you have meant to us. When you took the Hippocratic Oath, it must have had an addendum that covered care and compassion. You are truly special and I feel so blessed to know you.
In my observation, it is clear very little goes on in your office without distinct deliberation. It seems you have an exact process for everything – from the knock on the door while a patient is waiting to the language on the handout being exact, engaging, and grammatically correct. You are not only an outstanding surgeon, but an outstanding businessman/ manager/etc. It shows in your office and in your people.
