Dr. John William Tyson, MD

I was visiting in Connecticut from New York when I developed sudden severe abdominal pain. Went to the ER at Bridgeport Hospital where I was diagnosed with a small bowel obstruction. I wanted to travel home to take care of it but they told me it was not safe to do so. I was quite upset at the idea of being away from home and not knowing the doctors, especially since they told me surgery was a possibility. I did end up having surgery by Dr. Tyson and I couldn’t be more pleased with his kindness, understanding, and finally the results of my surgery, which he was able to do laparoscopic. I was home two days after surgery.

I have had nerve damage for more than a year now due to the surgery he did. It is becoming painful and I ask him about this during one of my follow-up appointments and he denied he done anything wrong.

I am in the hospital after having a colonoscopy with this guy last week and have been bleeding since. When I called his office, panicked, his staff told me to come in the next day at 4pm. It was an emergency room visit which turned into being admitted last night. I'm sure I would have died of blood loss had I waited for that appointment the next day.

In 2010 Dr Tyson and his team removed my appendix. It was an emergency surgery and I was well over 40 years old. I was petrified and once Dr Tyson walked in the room and talked with me his demeanor, his kindness, his bedside manner and the peacefulness he brought into the room with him brought and instant calm and peacefulness to me. He and his team did a terrific job and I cannot say enough wonderful things about him! If ever knowingly needing surgery I HIGHLY recommend Dr. Tyson as your surgeon. Praise God for allowing Dr Tyson to be the one to perform my surgery! Thank you Dr Tyson!
