Patient Reviews
Sep 07, 2020
When I was given a list of general surgeons at Memorial Care so that I have to get my gallbladder removed I asked one of my friends who was a nurse at the facility who she would see. She said Kelly France's. I then asked a friend who is the head of one of the Department's at Memorial Care and he also said Kelly Francis. Dr. Francis exceeded All my expectations. She was one of those rare Physicians who is excellent at her field while maintaining amazing bedside manner. She's kind friendly and very good at what she does. My recovery time with minimal and she walked me through everything that I should expect. having worked in the medical field for decades general surgeons are known for in and out procedures where they staple your incisions for expediency. Dr. Frances obviously took her time. My incision marks are almost completely gone. Obviously as a patient you want procedure to go well and be successful but you don't necessarily want a reminder of the surgery every time you undress.
