How likely are you to recommend Dr. Downes?
Being snowbirds from NJ, my husband had a medical emergency and had to go to SMH . We were fortunate enough to get Dr Downes. Emergency surgery was needed and he made certain all needed arrangements were made. We feel so blessed at his caring and expertise on my hubby’s behalf to get the needed surgery! His expertise in diagnosis gave my husband his mobility back! His genuine caring, compassion and accolades from other staff gave us great hope and did not disappoint!! Thank you Dr Downes! We are truly forever grateful! Your caring and concern will never be forgotten.
