"Dr. Benasher exceeded my expectation. He was very casual and down to earth but detailed enough beyond my imagination. His deep knowledge of my medical history and professional analytical skills gave me hope and confidence. I left the hospital feeling 10 years younger. Thank you Doctor and God bless you.
