The moment I woke up from the surgery that Dr. Gardiner performed, I knew something was wrong. I told him and he arrogantly informed me that it was all in my head. I was unable to walk or sit down and he wouldn't even approve a parking placard. That was three years ago and I have been in severe pain ever since. After countless medical appointments, physical therapy sessions, and pain medications, I was sent to Stanford University. They told me that I had severe damage to my pudendal nerve caused by the botched surgery that was unnecessary in the first place. I do not recommend this butcher. What a nightmare!

I was extremely comfortable with choosiing Laproscopic gallbladder surgery once I spent an office visit with Dr Gardiner. He does great work and is kind and personable. My recovery was fast and I have very small scars!

Great surgeon! He was recommended to me, by a nurse at Summit, when I had acute diverticulitis and needed a colostomy. He performed the initial procedure, and the re-connect a year later. That was

I had my first visit the other day, and find his office staff very professional. The surgery he recommends is not intrusive and healing time is much faster then the conventional surgery of cutting…
