I went to Dr. Uddo to have gallbladder surgery. I was the second patient in EJ to have the laser surgery. Dr. Uddo was great with prepping me for the new procedure. He put me at ease and explained everything completely. He also performed a surgical biopsy on me and again was extremely thorough. He is a great surgeon and I have complete faith in his opinion. My first choice always!

I was a new patient seeing Dr Uddo and I have to say he was great. He spent time answering my questions and going over my case. I also have to say his medical assistant is wonderful. She was very sweet and caring to my needs. Couldnt be happier with Dr Uddo and his staff. His nurse called me the day after my surgery to check how I was feeling and they mailed me a get well caed. Cant say I know any office that does that. I recommend all my family and friends to Dr Uddo.

Dr. is great but the wait time is absolutely ridiculous!! Each time I went which was twice, I waited over 2 hours!! No apology was given. The staff talks about your personal health info through the window so the whole waiting room can hear. Dr Uddo needs a better manager of his schedule and staff needs to be trained about HIPPA!
