Patient Reviews
Aug 01, 2020
Dr. Pettiford and his staff are outstanding. The staff was wonderful while preparing me for surgery. Dr. Pettiford came to my room with his assistant on numerous occasions to check in on me and I was only in the hospital a day and a half. The surgery went excellent. The staff made sure all of my medications were available and my follow-up appointments set even before I left the hospital. Dr. Pettiford and his staff take care of their patients well! If you are having GERD, hiatial hernia and/or reflux problems go make an appointment with him, you and your family will not be disappointed.
Thank you for sharing your feedback about Dr. Brian Pettiford, MD.
