Mr. Gane conducted a series of diagnostic tests to identify the likely cause, demonstrating professionalism and extensive knowledge throughout. He explained everything clearly, explored all possible options, and developed a thorough treatment plan. I felt truly confident in his hands and highly recommend his services.
