Provider Review
Couldn't recommend another doctor more than Dr. Vath. He was so professional and compassionate making me feel comfortable about my surgery from beginning until the day of. All of his staff in the office and at the ambulatory surgery center are beyond amazing as well. I would like to thank everyone for everything along every step in this process. I would also like to thank Dr. Vath for my phone call to check on me the night of my surgery. Although I was asleep and missed it there was nothing that made me feel more special as a patient than to listen to your message. So very sweet! Thank you again for everything.
