Patient Testimonials

Terrific!! I feel I made a wise choice selecting. Dr. Mahabir and his staff. All aspects of my treatment have been higher than my expectations. – PM

Dr. Mahabir is always kind, down to earth yet professional. I'm blessed to have him do my Breast reconstruction. The staff is just amazing. - ED

I had implants and thought when I found breast cancer last summer it would be an easy implant swap and remove the growth. I've worked with both Dr. Gawley (double mastectomy) and Dr. Mahabir (double D-Flap / he's done close to 2,000 of these procedures), and they are both terrific! Dr. Mahabir was the head plastic surgeon for Mayo PHX and I loved that right before my most recent surgery an Honor Health surgical nurse told me that he is "brilliant.". This is the same feedback I've received from my Mayo oncologist! He is brilliant, however his ability to relate to patients is down-to-earth. He has awesome bed-side manner!" - KM
