Mar 10, 2023
This amazing gift from God will always have a special place in our hearts. She performed colon surgery on my wife when she had a complete blockage and was a day or two from eternity. But for her skill, my boys wouldn't have a mom today. Doctor Kanneganti, your knowledge, your professionalism, and your craftsmanship has had a lasting impact on our lives. Thank you does not do justice to the place you have in our hearts.
