Review for Dr. Balat

Dr. Coleman has great bedside manner. He answers all our questions without any judgment & seems interested in our child’s wellbeing.

Review for Dr. Coleman Jr

Time spent with Dr. Dickson is golden because he listens and discusses all aspects that are essential for the success of the patient’s care. Experience is great and understanding is everything.

Review for Dr. Dickson

The doctor is excellent, his indications and recommendations were on point. Surgery went well and I strongly recommend him.

Review for Dr. Ihekweazu

Dr. Amede is one of the worst doctors I have ever been treated by. He puts every patient on every medication you can think of because he has no clue what is actually happening to the patient and why the patient is sick. I have heard other doctors speak so poorly about him and I now see why.
