Patient Reviews
Oct 28, 2022
Wife experienced abdominal pain while we were traveling thru Nebraska. God must have put us at BerganMercy as our motor home broke down and blocked colon at the same time. Dr. Viren Punja identified the problem quickly diagnosed the blocked colaon, then restudied the MRI and changed the preliminary diagnosis and path forward to exploratory surgery to prevent damage to the colon. He surgically released the adhesions to the colon with minor invasive surgery and had us back on the road in two days. Excellent surgeon. Excellent communicator. He followed up on us post surgery as well. I highly recommend him and Bergan Mercy Hospital.
