Patient Reviews
Dr. Tissot has been awesome. This makes 5 years cancer free. I had cancer in my left kidney and they removed the cancer and saved 2/3rds of my kidney. He and his staff are wonderful. I would recommend him and his staff!
Dr. Tissot is very caring and forth right with his patients. I appreciated his honesty and explanations about my options. He called my husband at home and reexplained everything to him. His bedside manners are exemplary and very much appreciated when your not expecting to have surgery 6 hours after being admitted thru ER. Excellent physician.
Very personable doctor. Dr T is always friendly, good humored and relaxed. He never appears rushed and answers questions thoroughly and with understandable details. I guess that folks who have urological issues who require medical attention are understandably uneasy about seeing a new doctor. I think Dr T is very aware of such unease and approaches patients in a warm, caring and thoroughly professional manner.
