Patient Reviews
Oct 18, 2022
I had stage 4 colon cancer in 2012 that went to my lung a few years later. Dr. Katigback operated & removed it but it came back again in the same area. My oncologist told me that it wouldn't make sense to have another surgery because the cancer would come back. She wanted to put me on a "maintenance plan". Dr. Katigback told me I should have the surgery & I have been cancer free for almost 6 years. He has a great personality & makes you feel at ease because he explains everything in words you can understand.
