Patient Reviews
Nov 10, 2017
Dr. Jackson saved my 78 yr old Mom's life as she had a very rare tumor.....Pheochromocytoma. So rare that only 2 out of 5 million people a year are diagnosed with. Her's was an Extra Rare Pheo as instead of being attached to the adrenal gland, it was attached to blood vessels below her kidney. Other surgeons stated they would need to remove the kidney. Dr. Jackson removed the tumor without removing the kidney. She is doing great!!
