Confidence inspiring!
We love Dr Drejet. She is very thorough with her examination. Direct and to the point.
Dr. Drejet is a true pro. Dr. Drejet and the team she put together for my surgery did a great job. I highly recommend her.
Dr. Drejet was genuinely interested in us and took her time to explain everything; the cancer and what needed to be done in surgery and post surgery, answered any questions we had.
I don't feel like Dr. Dryer understood why I needed to see her. I felt like she brushed off my concerns. The surgery she performed six months ago was still causing a lot of pain.
Dr Drejet is a wonderful caring human being and an excellent surgeon. She is very helpful to me and my difficult journey.
