Dr Cockroft is a lifesaver! Here I am 12 years, after brain surgery to repair a brain aneurysm on the middle cerebral artery, alive, well and healthy all thanks to him and the good Lord!

This doctor shouldn't be a medical doctor. He performed a surgery on someone I know and caused them to have a stroke.

Dr. Cockroft performed my embolization and was very professional before and after the procedure. He answered all my questions and made me aware of all steps along the way.

I've seen several Drs at Mass. General Hosp. in Boston and Johns Hopkins in Baltimore, and Dr Cockroft was the only Dr that sat down and spoke to me like a human being. He explained what was going on up in my brain and that is why I choose him to do all three brain surgries and I would do it again.
