Review for Dr. Kinahan

I’ve seen Dr. Goldman several times over the last 8 years. The non surgical treatment of hemorrhoids is great. The medication he provides is the best. He is a caring doctor.

Review for Dr. Goldman

I highly recommend Dr. Reese and her team. I was in pain for several years and was referred to her from one of my doctors. They told me she was the best but I thought they were exaggerating. She was simple amazing. One shot and my pain was gone.

Review for Dr. Reese

Dr. Ajayi has stood by me throughout my 20 years as his patient. I can, with immense gratefulness to God and before man say, I am in near perfect health in my advanced age because of his meticulous and diligence practice, I believe not to me alone, but to all his patients. My profound experience...

Dr. Bozof takes time to listen and shares his thinking with you. He always tells you why he recommends a treatment or no treatment.
