Patient Reviews
Jun 02, 2017
Dr. Cole is absolutely the most amazing surgeon! He took the time to save my fiancées intestine after it was strangulated. He could have easily removed it, but he took 45 minutes to massage it and bring it back to life. If it was removed like most surgeons would have done, it would have caused lifelong problems. He is a wonderful and caring man, he paid extra attention to our family and worked a miracle! I HIGHLY recommend Dr. Cole!
