    How was your appointment with Dr. Gavras Jr?

    Dec 05, 2020
    I had my right thyroid removed 11.18.20. I am very pleased with my surgery and scar. If I could show a photo of how great it’s healed I would. I appreciate his great bedside manner also. He never made me feel rushed and was very informative to help me in my decisions.
