One of the best Doctors I have had the pleasure of working with, her concerns go beyond Dr Kirkwood's own scope and these serious concerns becomes a team effort with her piers. With past surgery that Dr. Kirkwood has preformed on me, I can state that I am very blessed to be with the best. Please thank Dr. Kirkwood again
