Patient Reviews
May 19, 2021
I highly recommend Dr. Appel as he is very knowledgeable, understanding, helpful and thorough. Any issues and concerns I have are always addressed in a timely manner. He even called me once on New Year's eve to inform me of my test results. The results were concerning, not something that you should wait on and he advised me over the phone my options of what to do.
