After bring diagnosed with adenocarcinoma I was referred to Dr. Veerapong by my health insurance group as he has the training, experience and unique ability to successfully perform the specialized surgery I needed. Not only is he a brilliant surgeon, but his calmness, ability to listen to, understand and answer my questions gave me confidence and eased my apprehension about the surgery. I am very fortunate and appreciative to have been referred to Dr. Veerapong.

Dr. Veerapong saved my life from a condition that I shouldn’t have survived. He has great bedside manner as does his team, he is highly skilled beyond what I could have ever imagined. Also he is kind and humble and puts the patient at ease. He has much empathy. He performed a 12 hour surgery on me and not only have I survived, I have flourished. Obviously healing had it’s rough days but Dr. Veerapong and his staff are the greatest! I couldn’t be more thankful. Also he is a genius in his field and highly skilled. Brilliant humble man. Great doctor Great human being.
