I have been impressed by Prof Kosher experience, reassurance, prompt support and intervention. I had my gallbladder removed via laparoscopy which went very well. I have recovered very well from it and during the first week after the operation I was able to reach out to him and his secretary for important questions. I valued very much the full explanation that he gave of every step and the detailed documentation on what to expect before and after the surgery. That he provided.
Thank you for your kind review and comment. We are happy to know that your care was to your satisfaction and all of your questions and concerns were answered. We wish you a full recovery.
