Surgeon Testimonial

Gary Harrington, M.D.
my first impression about doctor Harrington, He cares and understand his patients, i love Dr. harrington he is good doctor, He has a very good office and staff, there was not one thing that i could find wrong with him, furture patients need to know that Dr. Harrington is the best doctor i know, aftercare is great when i had my panniculectomy done he came to my room 2 twice and call me when i was home just to make sure everything was okay, because i had mrsa on my stomach doctor Harrington told me that either the mrsa will go away or i will still have mrsa but either i had to have an IV placed in my arms for the rest of my life or try surgery and i had surgery sept 2007 mrsa is now gone. Dr Harrington is very, wonderful doctor, he really care about his patients, he understand what the patients is going through and when you have a doctor that has all those qualitys you have the best.
