Dr Ergan has spent a lot of time helping me with my problem. I feel like he listens to what I'm going through. He just did a procedure that I've had a number of times and it was the easiest one I have ever done. His staff are so professional and at the same time, very friendly and helpful. The whole building is friendly. It's sooo easy to park, get in and out of and no parking fees. My husband has decided to see him too after my experience. I would definitely recommend him and his staff.
