Patient Reviews
Mar 02, 2024
Dr. Bruce and staff, I cannot thank you enough for your performance and professionalism through my Robotic sigmoid colectomy surgery process. I was completely comfortable with you all through the entire process.. You and your team did an amazing job and faster than expected as well as gave me back a quality of life I had almost forgotten about. My only regret is not going through with your recommendation sooner. It can be scary thinking about it but you guys did a six out of five star job for me and I am so appreciative. Anyone reading this, do not be afraid and get your quality of life back. I can only hope this review not only gives Dr. Bruce and his staff a nod, but helps anyone on the fence get back to what they want themselves to be. This is coming from someone who was hospitalized several times with severe diverticulitis and diverticulosis flare ups. THANK YOU.
