Very kind doctor and staff. Surgical outcome was phenomenal with no complications and very little pain after surgery. Staff is very quick to return calls also, which is very reassuring when you’re having concerns.

My husband is dead because of him. Had bariatric surgery and his stomach closed - did a revision surgery and told him the pain he was having was healing pain. Stomach closed again, misdiagnosed said he had a blood clot in his liver - it wasn't the portal vein leading into the liver was closing also gave him an infection when he took out the gall bladder. Accused him of drinking - he hadn't had a drink in 30 years - then told him he was leaving for two weeks and turned him over to an associate. 7 months after his surgery he was dead. Don't use him or Elmbrook.

Cut into my nerves causing tremendous pain then denies his actions and beliittles me in front of his staff. The doctor never said why he was doing the extensive lymph node surgery nor why I was staying overnight in hospital or even bothered to visit or order some food. The worst health care experience ever and I have to live with level 7 pain for 5 to 7 years.
