He was the most amazing nurse, I can’t say enough good things about him. And Dr. Villarreal is AWESOME! He came out to meet me as soon as we got into the hospital. What other doctor would do that? He did an excellent job with my surgery, even removed a huge hernia that I didn’t realize I had. I would recommend him to anyone looking to have this surgery done.
