    How was your appointment with Dr. Sherer?

    Aug 12, 2022
    Dr Sherer has been my doctor/surgeon for a few of my medical conditions for quite some time. He's always interested in my needs and getting any surgical procedures done as quick and painless as possible. After the surgery and follow ups he's in contact and makes sure I am healing up right and answers questions like a friend instead of just a simple doctor. I feel like more than a patient with him, as well as his staff. They know me by my voice on the phone even..lol. I couldn't ask for better care for surgical care than CVSG and Dr Sherer. He's simply one of the best doctors I've known.
