This is more related to my surgery and recovery. Dr Nakahama and her team were exceptional. All my questions and concerns were thoughtfully, professionally and kindly addressed. The level of care and compassion I experienced both before and after my surgery was well beyond my expectations. Dr Nakahama her self took the time to build my trust and confidence easing my stress and fears when i was at my most vulnerable. I’m not qualified to comment on her technical skill, apart from mentioning that my surgery went very well and my recovery has been without complications.
