Patient Reviews
Nov 09, 2024
Removed a tumor the size of a racquetball and 8” of my colon back in 2022. He told me he got it all and better yet no chemotherapy was required. He saved my life. Just yesterday he removed a cyst from my abdomen. Very good bedside manner. Would highly recommend him to anyone requiring surgery.
