In patients' words

"My husband & I have been seeing Erich for over 20 years. He always listens and he NEVER goes with most expensive fix first unless there aren't any alternatives."

Patient review, Vitals

"I am switching after experiencing difficulty with Dr. Niehaus and his office in following up after lab work... I have had difficulty with this office in follow through, assistance in getting referred to a specialist and overall making me feel like they even care that I am a patient."

Patient review, Vitals

"Brandon may be good at cutting, but he is horrible when it comes to post op care. I would not let this man touch another family member."

Patient review, Healthgrades

"Dr. Dukes listens well, explains well, and provides good options and reasonable alternatives. She is very responsive and takes great care to find good treatments."
