5.0 star star star star starDr. Samant is both kind and clearly top of his field. I had a mass in my neck removed that I was expecting to have a large scar across my neck as is the practice. Dr. Samant did a robot assisted surgery that allowed him to hide the scar within my hairline. The mass is gone and hardly anyone would ever know it was there. Incredible surgeon, and simply a nice guy.
