It's been a few years since I saw Dr Couchot. I am writing because I had a wonder experience with him and his staff. But what stands out the most is he advised me at the time that I had a heart mumur. He suggested I discuss with my primary care doctor. I did and was pretty much dismissed. Several years later and 3 different doctors including cardiologists and I am now having Mitral Valve replacement with complications. Had he not told me of the murmur I never would have pursued the problem. Thank you Dr Couchot
I had a surgical extraction today. This is the best experience I have had at a dental office. All of the staff were professional and nice and answered all of my questions and concerns. After reading other reviews, I did not experience the "no bedside manner" reported of Dr. Couchot, but he IS an excellent surgeon. There is no aspect of the care I received that I could say anything negative about. Highly recommend!
I can’t say enough great things about Dr. Couchot and his staff! They make you feel at ease, professional top notch from beginning to end. So highly recommended! I would not go anywhere else. I have been going there since 2022.
