Review for Dr. Noble

Have seen Dr Bierbrauer for years for my hands. He is no nonsense friendly, smart and has an impeccable reputation. My hands are old and have been used and used and used. When I had my left thumb palm area operated on it was scary. I did everything according to the plan Dr Bierbrauer made for...

Review for Dr. Mactaggart

This was my first appointment with Dr. Weiner. I was immediately impressed with his medical knowledge and sense of ease. He took his time, explained everything regarding an upcoming procedure, and handled all my questions.

Review for Dr. Weiner

Amazing! I had my legs fixed by Dr Case with Vein closures. Best surgery I have every had. I had swelling, edema, pain, leg weakness and more before my Vein closure surgery. After surgery every symptom went away and my legs looked and felt so much better!!!
