Dr. James William Stricker, MD

Dr. Stricker is kind, compassionate, calm, skilled, and a credit to his profession. He put my very anxious daughter at ease with his careful explanation of the procedure and answered any question any time day or night. After the surgery, when he told us the operation went well, my grandson hugged him for about 20 seconds and kept thanking him. I fully believe Dr. Stricker went into medicine for moments like these. He truly made a difference in our lives.

I came to know Dr. Stricker in 2014, when is was in need of a colectomy. I had a need for his expertise again this year. I have to say that his calm demeanor and ability to answer all questions easily, goes a long way in easing the fear of what lies ahead. He is an amazing doctor in the fact that he actually listens to you and works with you to find the best solution for your particular situation. He is excellent at follow up and keeping in touch. I always felt as if I was the only patient that he had at that time. Sometimes I felt as if I was bothersome with my emails, but he always answered quickly and let me know that I could ask any questions that I had. I would highly recommend Dr. Stricker for any surgical needs. With Dr. Stricker, you are absolutely in the best and most caring hands.

Dr. Stricker is remarkable and a credit to his profession. Unlike some fine surgeons he also has a terrific bedside manner. He listens well, asks excellent questions and speaks with clarity. He is a true gentleman as well.

I was referred for a rectal GIST - the first he had encountered. He went to a conference, cornered an expert, and found valuable info. Till the end, he was searching for an alternate, but the result was a resection including the anal muscles, but I am clear 4 years plus, and he still monitoring.
