Patient Reviews
Aug 25, 2019
Excellent surgeon and team. Definitely the person to go to if you need pancreatic surgery. Expect to wait for office hours (we waited about 2 hours each time; bring a book!) - a small price to pay for an exceptional surgeon. The support staff is also great and will answer any questions you have.
