Patient Reviews
Nov 11, 2024
I am 83 years old and have heart failure. Two other surgeons proposed laparoscopic procedures, Dr. George did an open procedure with a local anesthetic, thereby avoiding the gas pumped into the abdomen and deep anesthesia necessary in laparoscopic procedures. I went home the same day. I have no pain or other problems.
