Congratulations on being named among the top doctors of Long Island once again.
It is very gratifying to have been selected by your peers to be part of this elect group and is a validation of the quality of your work. It is still of greater gratification to me to have my patients tell me how my surgery has positively enhanced their lives and they feel that it was a decision they have never regretted.
