How likely are you to recommend Dr. Sakabu?
Dr. Sakabu is an incredible physician! Though wait time can sometimes be a little longer than with other physicians, I know it’s because he’s listening to his patients’ medical concerns, taking the time with his examinations, discussing possible diagnoses - thoroughly explaining his reasonings, recommending his plan for treatment, and asking his patients if they have any questions or concerns - and he’s really serious about wanting his patients to completely understand what they have discussed during their visit! Dr. Sakabu is kind, gentle, and very compassionate. His extensive range of knowledge regarding even the rarest of conditions is mind boggling! If he’s unsure of the diagnosis, he’s not afraid to let his patients know this and will take the time to research his findings so as to better understand what he and his patients are dealing with regarding their medical condition. He tells his patients that if their condition suddenly worsens, they’re to call the office to be fit into his schedule as an emergency. When I first saw Dr. Sakabu in his office, it was after having gone from one physician to another and from one wound care clinic to another for over six years with results that improved my condition but did not heal my wounds. Dr. Sakabu listened intently to my medical history and performed an extensive examination so as not to miss any signs that might be found elsewhere on my body. I left his office feeling like I had really been listened to for the first time! I would not hesitate to highly recommend Dr. Sakabu to anyone needing wound care!
