    An old fashioned relaxing atmosphere!

    Dr. Fichman ability to make you feel relax and explain to you the procedure in a professional manner is very helpful. Any type of surgery is always concerning for us the patient. So that manner in which he carries him gives you confidence! Good job.

    First Impression

    It was my first time meeting with Dr. Fichman and he staff. He was very professional and spent time with me explaining my situation. I very much appreciated his compassion. Every staff member I met that day, from checking in to the various tests I needed, were all very nice, friendly and professional.
