Patient Reviews
May 09, 2022
Recent colectomy, Dr Lakshman used robotic da Vinci minimally invasive surgery which results in a quicker recovery. Dr was personable and answered questions. Based on my recovery he did an outstanding job with my surgery and I would highly recommend him to anyone needing this surgery. Two hospital nurses sang his praises as well without my even asking for their opinion- a good sign. His Office staff is subpar, as most seem to be these days, but this review is for Dr alone.
