Patient Reviews
Apr 18, 2020
Dr. Ferber saved my life in 2008. I had a perforated colon from diverticulitis. He made the extraordinary effort to remove part of my colon without leaving me with a colostomy. He is a wonderful doctor and a very special person. On a personal note, he said I was the only patient he had ever had with a perforated colon who was always smiling.
