- 5 out of 5 starsReviewed on 11/20/2024
I am very glad I drove from Philadelphia to see Dr Wright for a second opinion concerning urinary incontinence which began 4 years ago following prostatectomy at another prestigious institution. Dr Wright was as thorough, caring, and authoritative as I hoped he would be. And, as a retired anesthesiologist, I had high expectations. Dr Wright's clear explanations, founded on expertise and wisdom, were completely reassuring. I do not plan to have a surgical procedure, but I would certainly recommend Dr Wright to anyone and everyone.
