Patient Reviews
Mar 28, 2024
Great experience, he saved my life. I needed a FULL whipple surgery, its an extreme surgery (look it up) it took 10 hours. He did a fantastic job, minimal scaring, and healing was faster than expected. He constantly erred on the side of caution with my follow up. Very thorough.

What’s a board certification and why is it important that my provider has one?

A board certification represents a provider’s dedication to ongoing training in one or more specialties, including the completion of intensive exams.
