Biggest waste of time and $50 I ever experienced. Doctor may have spent 4 minutes with me. He tapped me with his stethoscope and I do mean tapped, decided I had a heartbeat, turned around and left the room. This was nothing but a money scam for the doctor and hospital. There was absolutely no reason for this appointment at all. I felt like the doctor breezed thru my appointment trying to play catch up.

Extremely professional, always felt at ease when speaking to him. Made me feel like I have known him for years! Surgery went perfectly and I would trust him with any other needs i may have.

Dr. Sano was very professional and personable. Explained thoroughly about my procedure both at the pre-consult and just before procedure. While I was in recovery, he explained the details to my wife. He followed up in 2 weeks after procedure and explained in understandable terms what his opinion was and the outcome. Would recommend him to anyone.
