I absolutely LOVE Dr. Isaacs! My son had appendicitis in Oct. 2009, and my daughter just had appendicitis last week! Wierd, I know. I specifically asked for Dr. Isaacs because I know that he is great at what he does. He had awesome bedside manners for my kids ( espeecialy at 4 and 6 in the AM ), and he explained in detail what was going to happen during surgery. Dr. Isaacs made my kids feel like they were in charge of what was going on. If, unfortunately, have to have surgery in his expertise, we most certainly will be choosing him for our doctor!!!
