Patient Reviews
Mar 24, 2024
After going from doctor to doctor and months of hardship with no doctor having a clue about what was wrong with my child, i was blessed to have met Dr. Tunkel. After seeing my child, he took one look in seconds and diagnosed her with a mycoplasma infection. He didnt even need a lab test (although he did one for formality). And after I kept insisting how amazing he was, he was humble about it all. He immediately took care of her with next steps. Its times like this i realize how rare people like Dr Tunkel are. He is a gift to his profession.
