Urinary tract infection
I thank him from the bottom of my heart for the confidence he gave me when I was down and thankful for his gesture when I was in need of a help too. He tries to treat with medications rather suggesting surgery upfront. I wish him all the best and good health to touch many people lives.
Grateful for personalized approach
