Dr Rotkis is a wonderful surgeon. I consulted with him for a nipple sparing prophylactic mastectomy. He was very knowledgeable answered all my concerns and was very personable and made me feel at ease from the first consultation. He performed the surgery with Dr Downs about 2 weeks ago and everything went very well with my surgery. From the pre op to post op he made me feel comfortable, answering my questions and concerns. He has a good sense of humor and treats his patients very compassionately, keeping their best interests ahead of everything. I highly recommend him to anyone that needs to have a mastectomy.

Dr Rotkis established great communication from the first meeting. Very well educated about masectomy and lump extraction. He reacts so well under pressure, and works so well with other medical staff. I had all confidence that he would save me and he did. He made me feel completely comfortable from the beginning of my journey until the end. He was sent here to do this work

My port in my chest has been infected 3 times. It has been draining and painful for 6 months. My vein now has a significant clot. Adequate treatment options have not been discussed.

Dr. Rotkis is a very nice, genuine person, will not talk down to you, doesn't act like you are a speck on his busy schedule, is interested in YOUR opinion and observations, and actually has a great personality and a sense of humor. In short, he is unlike 80-90% of surgeons you are likely to do business with if you have health issues. His staff is made up of equally nice, patient, sincere people - highly recommend!
