What do patients have to say about you?
Outstanding doctor. I saw him for what is only a minor problem but have been extremely impressed with his listening, attention to detail, thoroughness, concern, and follow-up. If only all doctors were this good.
Dr. Aliphas was attentive, professional and empathetic regarding my newly diagnosed inner ear issue. He made sure that I was fully educated and has planned a common sense course of treatment. Office staff is cordial and professional. I have to drive a distance to this office and hospital but it is well worth the trip!
I saw Dr. A for a minor issue that had been impacting my quality of life, but could be considered a non-issue. He was very attentive, made sure to utilize closed-loop communication and repeated back to me everything we discussed. He is an excellent healthcare provider.
