Dr. Demir is easily one of the most talented surgeons I've had the pleasure of watching in the OR. His surgical ability is amazing to see and his patient outcomes prove this. He is just as great inside the OR as he is outside the OR. His gentle and kind disposition puts patients at ease. I would highly reccommend Dr. Demir!
