I had my gallbladder removed by Dr. Dakin. I was surprised at the speed of recovery. I was back at work in two weeks even though it was less hours than I would normally work. Dr. Dakin was very accommodating and I would recommend him to anyone who needed his services. The staff at New York Presby were excellent and helpful and because you are Dr. Dakin's patient they seem to take extra special care. He seemed to be well respected.
