Excellent surgeon, excellent results and human treatment. I had a hernia surgery with laparoscopic surgery 5 months ago, I didn't have any discomfort.

Lupita Chan · Laparoscopic surgery Jun 2022

He is not only excellent as a doctor if not also as a person, one of his virtues as a doctor is that he takes the time to do an explanation before, during and after surgery, intending to keep his patients informed and at the same time offer us calm.I also think that the laparoscopic technique is good, especially for people who like me suffer from diabetes and provides us with a speedy recovery comparing it to other types of surgeries.
