Patient Reviews
Aug 08, 2024
Dr. V treated my wife for stage three colon cancer this past year. She was fabulous from the start. Dr. V told us the reason why she went into colorectal surgery is because she can save lives, and that's exactly what she did for my wife. She is smart, engaged, and incredible skilled. She also took a deep personal interest in my wife's health situation and our lives. My wife is now nine months healthy post treatment and the doctor is still available through a text or email for the many questions you may have in a timely manner. I whole heartedly recommend her. A terrific surgeon and wonderful person.
