El dr. Molins es un gran cirujano, y una gran persona. A mi me operó de un tumor y lo hizo abriendo y cerrando por una cicatriz de una operación anterior, de manera que de dos grandes operaciones distintas me ha quedado una sola cicatriz. Su calidad humana y de atención es inmejorable. Un 10.
Fui de visita por mi hijo y quedamos gratamente sorprendidos por su profesionalidad y por el trato y compresión hacia mi hijo. Lo recomiendo a todo el mundo
