Very responsive, did a Whipple procedure that wasn't anywhere near bad as I thought. Very little pain, recovery has been easy. I highly recommend him.

Dr. Nir presents himself in a very professional mater, yet has the ability to communicate with the patent at a personal level that is somewhat rare these days. Time spent with Dr. Nir both pre and post surgery was never rushed and he has the ability to make the patient feel at ease during these very stressful times. All my questions and concerns with answered in a matter that was easy for me to understand. I would highly recommend Dr. Nir should his services be needed.

This Doctor is very kind, courteous and takes the time to see you not only as a patient, but as a person. Dr. Nir has a very uplifting spirit and was very helpful in my time of need. Dr. Nir did over 40 radical biopsy's on me and his face was the first face i saw after the procedure and all I could see was a big smile on his face that gave me peace of mind that everything was okay.
