Dr Taskakori was the best. She talked me through every step and executed the surgery perfectly. I can't thank her enough.

Dr. T became my surgeon when Dr. Kump moved to Utah. I was apprehensive upon hearing about changing surgeons between multiple procedures, but when I met her the first time, I felt completely comfortable. She explained my problem thoroughly and fully described the upcoming procedure. She answered all my questions without over-complicating with medical terminology. Her "bedside" manner was friendly and professional. Hope I never have to have more surgery, but I will want her if I do!

Very pleasant experience to say the least. I arrived early and was able to see Dr. T in a timely fashion. She showed me every step of my MRI and explained what I was seeing. She was very gracious and made me feel fortunate to have had her invest her knowledge and time to my physical issue of my arm being numb. She advised me of my options and future test needed so all in all not only her but the rest of the staff were very helpful. Robert Viles

I'm not trying to have an operation any time soon, but she's the surgeon I'd ask for if I did...
