Dr. Sniezek is an extraordinary physician and surgeon. Although this survey narrowly focuses on a single follow-up visit after Dr. Sniezek performed a time-sensitive excisional biopsy on me, every single encounter I've had with the doctor has been outstanding. It is exceptionally rare to meet an expert in his field with such a wealth of skill and experience who is nonetheless affable, approachable, and accommodating. I cannot speak highly enough of him.
