Patient Reviews
Feb 22, 2023
Dr Foglia recommended surgery for my Crohn's disease which I tried avoiding at all costs. Unfortunately, the surgery was unavoidable and 7 months I was back in the hospital. The diseased part of my intestines was plastered onto my abdominal wall, and my bladder. After a slow recovery, 3 months later I have since fully recovered. This surgery has changed my life. Amazing Doctor!!!
