Dr. Caparosa is highly personable and an excellent communicator who made me feel comfortable and welcomed, then gave clear explanations of what I'm dealing with and how to proceed. Surgery is not necessary, nor advisable, and of course that is welcome news. However, Dr. Caparosa inspires such confidence that any patient of hers is in good hands. |
