Patient Reviews
Dec 18, 2023
Nov 2023 Dr. Krezalek performed a robot-assisted surgery to remove a section of my colon. She did a great job. She is a caring and kind physician; and, an excellent surgeon. I highly recommend Dr. Krezalek. During our office visits, she was laser focused on me and my needs. She listens carefully. She addressed all my (many) questions. She took extra time, in a phone call a week prior to surgery, to reassure me when I was anxious. My result: complete recovery and zero pain (not for a moment). The robot-assisted surgery is minimally invasive (small incisions) and helps you recover quickly. I'm writing this five weeks post-surgery. The only medication I used was acetaminophen. My body recovered quickly: I was walking up/down stairs (unassisted) 48 hours post-surgery. My bowels returned to 100% normal just six days post-surgery. Again, highly recommended.
