Doctor Plasencia has two spectacular factors, one is for his humanity as a person and the other his talent as a doctor and a surgeon. He was always extremely involved and attentive before, during and after my surgery. He is truly a caring caregiver. I give thanks to God that I was able to find him.

Dr. Plasencia, beside being an excellent surgeon, is a very caring one too. I just had surgery a few weeks ago and cannot say enough as to his skills and expertise, as well as wonderful bedside manner.

Dr. Placensia is truly an exceptional Doctor as well as a human being. Not only was my surgery a success, but the care and follow up Dr. Placensia gave me is second to none. I was truly blessed to have had him not only for my hemmorroidectomy surgery, but for my colectomy surgery. He is the BEST!
