Patient Reviews
Sep 15, 2023
It has ben 20 years since this successful surgery. I will be forever greatly happy that he took the extra time to remove my gallbladder along with my bariatric surgery. This surgery was supposed to be 4 hrs. He took 8 hrs. So I would not have a scar down the middle of my stomach. I will always remember you. You will always be the one I remember as the one that is the nicest to me in this life. Truly!!!
