a detailed perfectionist who listens! the entire staff raves about her. when she said she'd have me back in the gym in four weeks she wasn't guessing (spot on to the day). I'll recommend my clients and colleagues at Nordstrom to this bright and talented Doctor.

Dr. Chojnacki is Knowledgeable, professional, caring, and thorough. She performed laparoscopic repair of a type 3 hiatal hernia. She is a highly skilled surgeon with just the right level of concern and compassion. I would highly recommend her and would return for future surgeries if needed
