I would highly recommend Dr Arcand. He was my surgeon 12 years ago when I had a mastectomy. He is a very compassionate doctor and helped to make my cancer experience a lot easier to deal with. I should have sent a review years ago. He is part of the reason I am still alive today.

I had my gallbladder removed by Dr. Arcand a few days ago and couldn't have had a better experience! He came in before my surgery to answer any questions I had and made sure I was comfortable. After hearing about how tough recovery would be, I was a bit nervous. But whatever dr. Arcand did, he did it right! Recovery is not nearly as bad as I thought it would be. Dr. Arcand is such a nice guy and a gifted surgeon!!

Dr. Paul Arcand and his team successfully performed a high-risk emergency surgery on my mother this past week at Saint Vincent's Hospital in Worcester, MA. His confidence & experience were extremely reassuring during a very difficult time. Our family is eternally grateful.

I had gastric bypass surgery with Dr. Arcand and after having lost close to 150 lbs my life is completely different. He took time to answer my questions fully (and I had plenty of them, let me tell you) and I couldn't have possibly been more confident in his ability than I was when they took me into the OR. I was scared & he made it Ok again. He is amazing.

Never have I met a doctor so completely invested in his patients. I felt like I was being treated by a family member. Dr Arcand goes above and beyond to insure quality of care. He holds himself to the highest standards of care with success. A talented surgeon with a such an amazing bedside manor that is hardly found these days in the medical field. A true diamond in the rough.
