She is a credit to your office, and I hope her unusual qualities are recognized and rewarded. — RL

Please accept our sincerest gratitude for the genuine concern and expedient response when my Mom acutely declined in the hospital. She trusted in you totally at a time when all trust and hope had been dampened by the ever changing world of medicine. You proved that warmth and compassion are not lost to a world of computers and regulations. Mom passed and her suffering is over. We will never forget your kindness. — PK & families

A BIG thank you…you injected Botox in my bladder about 3 months ago and I have had minimal bladder spasms (only very weak ones). My catheter is staying in and no more catheterizations 2-3 times weekly. See you again soon but wanted to thank you now since such a big difference and improvement for me. — KJ

It is difficult to put into works my sincere gratitude for all you did for me as I approach the one year anniversary of my re-implantation surgery. Since my return from the hospital without the catheter four days after the procedure I’ve lost no days due to the terrible pain. Thanks for taking me on as a patient when no other urologist near my home would, without a 3 month wait. Thanks for your patience, concern, humor and skill with the robot... I could not be more grateful. — LB
