Patient Reviews
Jul 26, 2018
I was taken to Chippenham by ambulance due to an at home accident. Dr. Trahan and the surgical team saved my life. I was bleeding internally and she extracted and replaced a liter and a half of blood and sewed me back together. I am very grateful for his skills and efforts in saving me. She saw me everyday of the 6 days I was in the hospital and the 2 follow up visits in her office to remove the staples and check on my recovery.
