How likely are you to recommend Dr. Light?
Dr. Light was my mother's surgeon through two major surgeries and is the most phenomenal physician I have ever encountered. Not only is she incredibly skilled in her practice; but she also exudes warmth, genuine concern, and thoroughly answers questions. I credit her with adding many years to my mom's life due to her wise decision-making and the follow-up of care that Mom received. Mom felt so valued each time we met with Dr. Light and was extremely confident in any advice or direction she was given by this physician. Dr. Light also recognized and appreciated my mom's sense of humor and vibrant personality, and she and her entire staff joined in and made each visit a wonderful experience. After moving my Mom 130 miles away, I continued to bring her to see Dr. Light for the five-year follow-up appointments instead of changing to a local physician. It was well worth the trip! I cannot say enough good things about this physician. She is a gifted surgeon and an amazing human being!
