In patients' words
"I was cut from hip bone to hip bone and within 2 weeks my incision began to separate. This resulted in multiple trips to Des Moines, 2 rounds of antibiotics, a hole in my stomach on the incision and was scheduled for an incision revision in March of 2021. Within 2 weeks of the revision the exact thing happened again."
— RateMDs"I could FEEL him cutting my insides. Had to actually yell at him to stop touching me and numb me. His response 'I don't know why this is hurting'"
— Trustindex.io"Not only did he check in with me but his nursing staff did as well. It’s wonderful having such a dedicated care team behind you when having a big procedure completed!"
— Trustindex.io"Patients often praise the calm atmosphere of the office, which helps reduce anxiety and makes them feel comfortable. The staff are friendly, attentive, and caring, creating a reassuring environment for all visitors."
