Patient Reviews
Dec 21, 2016
He performed gallbladder surgery on me 10/14. Dr Fisher was out of town when I was discharged from hospital - their attending physician did not check out my condition before discharging me. I owe my life to Dr Fisher - 13 days later I returned to have staples removed he noticed immediately I was in distress and sent me back to the hospital - was hospitalized for 10 days on 24 hr watch because of blood clots formed after surgery and very adverse breathing problems. I very much appreciate him!!
