He was very straightforward with the answers for the questions that I asked him. He even said a couple of more good questions, and he gave me the answers that I needed to know. So that made me feel a lot better with getting myself ready for this transplant

Dr. Geevarghese was absolutely the best. He explained everything in terms I could understand. He showed me images of my liver and the progress that has been made. I am absolutely pleased with my appointment with him and his assistant, Dr. Baker.
