Dr Denz is the best surgeon I know and gave me minimal scarring while removing my Gallbladder while 21 weeks pregnant. Highly satisfied.

I have nothing but great things to say about Dr renz. My family had a very devasting situation and he walked us through the whole thing, answering our questions along the way. When he came to see my family member in the days to follow, he took the time to listen and address all our concerns. I have a great deal of respect and appreciation for all he does and did for our family. A+ rating!!!

My husband had a laproscopic colon resection done by Dr Renz. He did a rushed job and as a result, the colon separated and all of his waste leaked into his system. I called his office only to be told by his nurse that the problem was gas as his stomach was so enlarged. My husband was septic by the time I took him back to the hospital. I had no idea of infection. Dr Renz's response to the situation was " How unfortunate for you to be in the 3 to 5 percent of the people that have complications!" Dr Renz, way to brush us off! Dr. Renz never followed up after I contacted his office 4 times during the week following the surgery. Well, another surgeon saved my husband's life, literally. Thank heavens Dr. Renz was not on call that night! I do not recommend this surgeon to anyone!

I could not have asked for a more thorough, caring and considerate physician. His nurse was great as well. office staff left some things to be desired.
