Dr. Illan, (full name is Dr. Selim Jalil Illán Fraijo) Dr. Illan is caring and such a talented surgeon. Day after surgery you would never know I even had surgery. The whole team is top notch and I would refer anyone to Dr. Ilan, in fact, I took my daughter to be sleeved by Dr. Illan 5 months after my success!
