Patient Reviews
May 03, 2020
I was a patient recently at St. Francis Hospital and had a plethora of doctors attending to my various problems. Dr. Kannangara was part of my team and he did a great job. He found me new medications to prevent future hospital stays since I had medication induced acute pancreatitis. Thank God for him. Other doctors there wanted to put me (and briefly did) back on the medications that were the primary cause of my illness.
