Patient Reviews
Jul 22, 2021
Dr. Dittenhoffer did a tremendous job removing my gallbladder using that method which requires very small cuts. I had very little pain after the surgery and recovered quickly. After my positive experience with Dr. Dittenhoffer, I have recommended him to all of my friends.
