Dr. Corvera and staff were excellent. I was seen for something so minimal compared to others in more serious conditions, yet they still treated me with kindness and very professional.

I had a benign paraganglioma tumor. So I needed surgery to get it removed. He is the only surgeon that I would ever trust. The surgery was done in the year 2016. I love him like a brother, friend just a good person that is extremely cocern about his patients. He save me, and gave me a new life, I cried, praise him, thank him for what he done for me. The surgery was 13 hours long, in other words, I went into surgery at 1:00 pm and woke up after the surgery at 2:30 am the next day. I was surprise that I was still alive, and was surrounded by love ones. A true technically bound professional in the utmost. This 2023 and im still here on this earth.
