Patient Reviews
Feb 06, 2023
Dr Teixeira was my doctor when I had troubles getting a colonoscopy in 2019. He got it done and saw a very small polyp. Was shocked when it came back cancerous because he would have sworn it wasn’t. He sent it to Mass General to confirm. Spoke with many doctors. All I KNOW IS HE PROBABLY SAVED MY LIFE. It was a fast growing cancer but it’s gone. Thank you Dr Teixeira. Thank you!!!!
