Patient Reviews
May 14, 2024
I met with another Parathyroid Surgery group and then with Dr. Politz. There is no comparison in expertise, professionalism, compassion and bedside manner. I am so glad my endocrinologist recommended Dr. Politz. He, and his staff (especially Kristin!), exceeded all expectations.
