    How was your appointment with Dr. Sama?

    Apr 08, 2021
    Dr. Sama is an amazing surgeon, and so caring. When I had some serious problems, he spoke to me during his vacation multiple times, even late at night, and he checked in on me even after he resolved my issues. Plus I had an excellent result from my surgery.
