I do not recommend this so-called doctor. My mother went in for a biopsy and came out a vegetable. Our lives are ruined by this man physically and financially. I gave a rated several years ago, but I noticed that it was never posted to the website. We'll see if it makes it this time.

Almost 9 years ago I first meet Dr. Hanel, I was scared to death. I knew what was facing me. He assured me things would be ok, and they were. He has a gift. With his gentle hands, and Gods answer to prayers I am still here today.

This man saved my life! Everything happened so fast. Being diagnosed with Moyamoya disease in July, I was scared. But, he quickly got me in and performed the necessary surgery that saved my life. Always answered questions and eleviated my fears. Did everything based on how I felt. I'm so lucky to have him as my doctor!
