Patient Reviews
Oct 19, 2020
A wonderful physician; reassured me that my ventral hernia was a relatively simple and short surgery. Outstanding bedside manner. Highly experienced and with an "old world European/South American" manner; described to me by another MD as "the surgeon's surgeon." Dr Goicochea operates out of the Massachusetts Avenue Surgery Center which has low-volume personnel traffic and high COVID protocols, thus very safe. I am glad Dr Goicochea is in my life.
