Patient Reviews
Sep 14, 2020
Absolutely excellent on all counts. I had the Whipple surgery with Dr. Golas. This is one of the most complicated surgeries out there. It lasted 8 hrs. Due to Dr. Golas' surgical skill, I had none of the associated side effects and recovered perfectly in no time at all. I guess I am a "miracle patient" as much as Dr. Golas is a "miracle surgeon"!
