He and his staff made sure I was comfortable throughout the whole procedureNolo, South Africa, 05 05 22

Did a keloid removal surgery with Dr. Filipe and he was very patient and considerate. He and his staff made sure I was comfortable throughout the whole procedure. Best part is that I didnt see any blood during and after the surgery. It was almost as if they were covering up a crime scene hahahaha. Will see how the follow-up sessions go, but so far so good.
