Dr. Abargil is a good doctor, surgery was successful but communication was a bit dry. Other than that everything is great!

f divine grace, a professional elevation. No less important, you are a unique and very human person. I came to you for a consultation after looking for a doctor who performed and was an active partner in both decompression surgeries and the surgery for which I was scheduled. I received a detailed explanation from you, it should be noted that despite this, I still had quite a bit of anxiety and asked additional questions, which you answered with great tolerance. My family and I thank you very much, you will be in our hearts forever💙
I was referred to Dr. Abergil by another ENT doctor due to a sinus problem because the first doctor trusted Dr. Abergil's professionalism. Dr. Abergil treated and operated on me. He was professional, kind and patient.
