Dr. Ravi Moonka is ,without a doubt, the very best physician I've been involved with during my entire cancer treatment. Would recommend him to anyone with cancer.

The resident and surgeon were both pleasant and answered my questions fully. I felt that more information about the surgical procedure should have been provided.

I don't understand the negative comments made about Dr. Moonka without any written justification. I have had two surgeries by Dr Moonka at Virginia Mason Hospital. He is an excellent surgeon. He is very courteous and caring. I suspect the negative comments are not legitimate

I had my Gall Bladder removed at Virginia Mason by Dr. Moonka. He and his staff were amazing. The care I received was excellent. They were kind, professional, courteous, compassionate and I felt very comfortable being in their care. I would definitely recommend him and his co-workers.
