Great bedside manner. Answered all questions before and after emergency surgery. Never came across as needing to leave in order to attend to other matters/patients.

1 surgery turned into five over a six month period. I am now worst than I ever was before. I have been bleeding for months and had to get another doctor to fix this guys mess for a third time! Please do not use this guy.

This man completely ignored all of my pre-existing issues and it’s been 7 months after the surgery and my life has been SO MUCH WORSE THAN BEFORE. He did an absolutely terrible job and now my life is in extreme peril. I never go out. I eat only 1-2 times every 3 days because of how much this man messed me up. I will also need other surgeries to fix this. Unbelievable. Stay away from this monster.

BEWARE - if you need to reschedule an appt, you will be told to fill out a HIPAA form. And if you live hours away like we do, you will need to call several times to get the form e-mailed (i.e., light a fire under their you know whats)...you will e-mail the filled out form back and then be told it is not filled out appropriately, and that the form will be "disregarded" (their words). Form was filled out appropriately. All this to just CHANGE AN APPT TIME. Ridiculous. We found another doctor..

An excellent Doctor. He took care of my emergency. I was very sick and could have had more complications but he knew what to do. After healing he removed 20 inches of my damaged colon when it was safe to do so. Recovery was fast and no problems. I would recommend him if you have any problems. My problem is diverticulitis.
