Patient Reviews
Feb 24, 2025
Dr. Dockendorf did my gallbladder surgery on Feb 13, 2025. Prior to the surgery I had watched the surgery on YouTube as well as several patients videos. Most patients were on hard drugs for pain ie liquid morphine. So I was nervous but prepared. I DID NOT HAVE ONE ONCE OF PAIN! It was easier than having a dental cleaning.I was tired after the surgery from the anesthetic. Otherwise I could gone straight to the store shopping. If you are planning on having a surgery, don't hesitate to choose Dr. Dockendorf. I know where to go if i ever need another surgery. He is amazing! Thank you Dr. Dockendorf!!
