Patient Reviews
Apr 02, 2017
I had hernia surgery with Dr. Fuller, he is truly remarkable. I had a cue ball size hernia in my lower abdomen. After surgery, I only took pain killers for a day and a half. It's been 12 days now, and I feel better then ever. I was so impressed with Dr. Fuller and hiss staff. From the consoltation with him to the post Op visit, 100 percent professional. They actually care about you. Kevin Hofland, Scripps Torrey Pines
