Dr Obrien is personal, professional and compassionate. Always has the time to express procedures and treats patients with dignity and respect. I don't want to have surgery again but if I needed it dr Obrien would be my first choice. He made me whole again. Thank you dr Obrien

Dr.O'Brien removed my gullbladder by laparoscopic surgery. I had very little pain, fast recovery, and the small scares are hard to see. I was feeling real good by the 3rd or 4th day after surgery, and never had any real pain. I went home about 2-3 hours after surgery with no problems. I cannot say enough good things about Dr. O'Brien's demenor, knowledge and skills. If you need surgery in any of Dr. O'Brien's many areas, you will feel confident with him without reservations. I'm feeling so lucky to have been referred to him. My husband also sees Dr. O'Brien for his issues and feels that same way as I do about him. Many thanks to this highly skilled doctor. During my gullbladder removal follow up, Dr. O'Brien found that I had a aortic aneurysm I did not know I had and may never have found out I had one, until it was too late. I will continue seeing Dr. O'Brien with my new issue with confidence until it is resolved.

I think he rushed my decision to amputate my left leg as some people told me I could have kepted my leg but insted I am living in pain and my fake leg won't work with me so I am forever in a wheel chair everyday I wonder what if I had waited and not rushed into making the decision.
