Patient Reviews
May 17, 2018
on May 8th Dr Polhill did Robotic Nissen Fundiplication Surgery on me for extreme gastric reflux. Today is 9 days post surgery. I have been amazed and well pleased with how the whole procedure went. I have had surgeries in the past and had to suffer through the pain that even sometimes pain med could not control. With this surgery, I have only had minimal pain. There has been almost no incisional pain. i highly recommend Dr Polhill for any surgery, especially any type of Robotic Surgery.
