Patient Reviews
Nov 16, 2024
I received a diagnosis that required surgery of the small intestine to remove cancerous tumors. Dr. Bindu Umapathi was recommended for the surgery by my gastroenterologist and several acquaintances in the medical profession who knew her expertise with my problem. I am glad I listened to them. From the first office visit to the eventual surgery, hospital visits, and follow-up appointment Dr. Umapathi was exceptional in the time she spent to give me thorough and understandable descriptions of each step towards my recovery. She listened and responded to my concerns throughout this journey. As a testament to her surgical skills, in a 5-hour process to remove 5 tumors and many lymph nodes, I rebounded quickly and began walking the hospital corridors the next day. I will always remember her attention and concern for my comfort and recovery in the hospital.
