Dr. Luis Gerardo Cano Reviews, Ratings
“From the first consultation I had with Dr. Cano Santos I felt confident. I arrived with pain due to an inguinal hernia and when he examined me, he explained my situation and the solution in detail. My only option was surgery. A week after having my consultation I had a laparoscopic surgery and everything went very well. I am still in recovery but the process has been successful. I am very happy that I made the decision to have surgery with Dr. Cano Santos.” – Jose
