Patient Reviews
Dec 29, 2023
Dr. Vapnek is the best. He saved my life by catching my prostate cancer early and then sending me to the best Oncology specialists possible. For years I was shuttled from one urologist after another and got to the point where I hated and feared them. In Dr. Vapnek I found thorough and compassionate doctor. You can trust him. He never did procedures I didn't need. WONDERFUL!!!!
