Patient Reviews
Jun 04, 2018
Diagnosed with AAA in 2012. Dr. Kalmbach’s explanations of AAA were clear, concise and easy to understand. He took as much time with me on every visit as needed to answer any and all of my questions. He personality called and explained results of all of my subsequent CT scans, while we waited for the aneurism to reach the size required for endoprosthesis placement. Finally, in December 2016, the Gore Excluder Endoprosthesis was placed. Not problems since. Dr. Kalmbach is a great doctor!
