Review for Dr. Steehler

Dr. Fisher is a good Christian physician. Performed a robotic right total nephrectomy on me and was able to leave hospital the next day without any need for additional pain medications. I was afraid that I would be out of work a long time but was back to work after 3 weeks. I highly recommend him...

Mitchell Everett Mar 11 2024

Review for Dr. Fisher

Beyond rude. He has a rude comeback for every question or comment you have. I dreaded having to see him. Zero manners!
