“Dr. Savarirayan was very knowledgeable and understanding. He explained the procedure and everything went as planed with little or no pain. I have used other local doctors in the past and was disappointed. Although Dr Savarirayan is not in my local district I drove the extra miles and was very glad I did. I would use him again and I have recommended him to friends.”
