This surgeon did my husband's neck surgery 3 years ago. I met him at the appointments and he has a great bedside manner and made us feel very comfortable. After the surgery, he came and found me in the waiting room and told me how the surgery went. With surgery so close to the spine, we were very concerned with the surgery and he answered all our questions before and after the surgery. Even better, he is located here in Murrieta! We didn't have to drive all the way down to San Diego or up to Riverside for the surgery.
