Patient Reviews
May 18, 2022
PIH has the nicest, and caring doctors, nurses and staff. I came into emergency room December 17, 2017 and needed to be put in a coma that lasted 3.5 months. When I woke up I was freaked out. Dr Anderson without a doubt, is responsible for saving my life. I had necrotizing pancreatitis, meaning my pancreas was over producing and eating itself then started eating my other organs. Dr Anderson I found out had been a Doctor in the Armed Forces. He knew the only way to save me was to use a wound-vac to soak up all the pancreatic fluids, of course insurance denied the procedure. After 23 life saving surgeries, Dr Anderson decided I could be brought out of Coma. I remained in PIH for a couple weeks longer. I am so grateful for PIH, and all the staff. I still come in and have procedures done here at PIH, every time I come in, I get the best service.
