Patient Reviews
Sep 13, 2024
Dr. Paracha was recommended to me from my Gastroenterologist. I had gallbladder issues for a long time. I called for an appointment and was able to see him the same week. His office staff were professional and kind. He examined me and determined my Gallbladder had to be removed. The office staff made all the arrangements as well as contacting my insurance company and I was set for surgery in 3 weeks. The Surgery went well. The day after the surgery, the pain I had shooting to my back was gone. It had been there for years. My post op visit was today and Dr Paracha went over the whole surgery with me including the pictures he took while performing the surgery. I have never seen that before. All I can say is I am so happy that I had such a Great Experience from beginning to end from Staff to Dr. Dr Paracha has a Great bedside manner and a kind tone in his voice. Thank You sir for fixing me. I Highly recommend him.
