Review for Dr. Hemmer Jr

I love Dr Gentin. She is so caring and listens to everything I have to say and looks at me when I’m talking instead of looking at her computer.

Review for Dr. Gentin

I had surgery for dupuytren's contracture. It all went well except she left a piece in my hand and know it has grown and became a problem again, I don't know why she left that piece there except maybe she thought she would get to do another surgery! if i do another surgery it won't be with her.

Review for Dr. Schaheen

She killed my husband. While she has many accolades,!she was not experienced enough with heart failure to treat him appropriately. He died after heart surgery performed by this doctor. Excellent bedside manner but not as skilled as she puts forth.?
