Featured Review
Dr. Gedeon is an amazing, thoughtful doctor. I have been a patient of his since 2020, when I lucked into having him perform emergency surgery. I recently had a second emergency surgery, and had seen him a few times between surgeries. He is knowledgeable and provides clear, concise, and comprehensive explanations. He responds in a timely manner to any questions, made daily hospital room visits and sent residents or PA's to check on me frequently. Dr. Gedeon treated me so well - never dismissive, never condescending. He is a rare breed of physician and I wish I could find more doctors like him.
