Dr. Tanabe is a one of a kind doctor. After I hysterically called him on a Saturday morning to explain to him that my son had developed an infection as a result of surgery performed by a different surgeon(Dr. Bach Le), and that Dr. Le had been unwilling to stay late the day before to see him, Dr. Tanabe OPENED his office on a Saturday, just for my son and performed a necessary surgery to clean out the infection. He refused payment, and was willing to bill my insurance first. His kind demeanor and caring attitude set him aside from those other money-hungry surgeons that are willing to squeeze you in for an appointment to perform the surgery but not when you need follow up care.
