Dr. Athani went beyond duty and courtesy in caring for my kidney cancer by performing my operation at a hospital approved by my insurance company although he operates at a different hospital . Such caring is seldom seen and I truly appreciated it.

I first met Dr. Athani and his colleague Dr. James Allen while I was a patient in the Jefferson Hospital undergoing a colon sectioning in 2005. Both are oustanding urologists. I'm quite pleased to have been a patient of both Dr. Athani and Dr. Allen

ultra considerate of his patients comfort both in waiting room area and in examining rooms!! Makes sure both patients and their families are aware of all options and procedures needed and spends ample time to answer any and all questions they may have!! He makes it easy to trust him and his ability to take care of your medical needs!!!!
