Reece Alkire, DO, MPH

My sister was on the cvicu unit at Nash UNC where this bobble head of a doctor works. my sister had been complaining about throat pain, chest pain, & actually started to bleed out into her canister by mouth all after being intubated all doctors told her this was normal. the night she had so much blood and clots coming up to where she was gasping for air, me and my mother yelled to get help. this doctor appears, comes into a DARK ROOM, to assist my sister, she’s visibly choking, saying she can’t breathe. he looks at her vitals and says everything is fine. and everything obviously wasn’t. he then says he wasn’t going to argue with us because of our frustration that my sister was almost dying in front of me. I said well could you examine her throat forget the vital screen she needs help !!.

I have never met a more thorough, compassionate physician in all my life. It might sound overdramatic but with all the doctors out there now just in it to make the money, push meds and then shove you out the door, it's refreshing to see one that actually cares.

Dr Alkire is a very thoughtful, compassionate, very thourough.

This man is an amazing surgeon! He is very friendly and explains everything in detail. Has great energy and truly gifted! Best surgeon around here...
