How likely are you to recommend Dr. Pichardo?
Had to remove my gallbladder. Dr. Pichardo was my surgeon. She was professional, thorough and polite. I enjoyed that she presented herself before surgery willing to answer all of my questions which made me feel at ease and confident throughout this ordeal. I highly recommend her to anyone in need of a surgeon. She is a true professional. Thank you Dr. Pichardo
