Dr Opene is an exceptional doctor. He has incredible medical knowledge and insight. He listens and isn’t judgmental. He has a way of communicating conditions and treatments in a way that is very easy to understand. It can be scary seeing a doctor and being forced to talk about uncomfortable truths about health and aging and I have always felt comfortable being totally honest with Dr Opene about my individual health concerns. I’m grateful to have him as an advocate for my health.
