Doctor Anele, made me feel very comfortable. Explained everything in a manner, in which I could understand. Polite, respectful, professional etc…Compassionate towards my situation. I’d highly recommend Dr. Anele to any one you may have an urology problem, or other medical issue regarding that area....

Review for Dr. Anele

He did zero patient assessment didn't read any test results and made his 'diagnosis' within 5 seconds. And it was wrong.
