Very grateful to have Dr. Amankwah as my vascular doctor as he listens to all of my questions and explains, in detail, the reasons behind what is happening and or what he will be doing (I.e., during my stab phlebectomy procedure). Along with Dr. Amankwah, the receptionists, medical assistant, technicians, and everyone who cared for me was welcoming. Thank you!
