How likely are you to recommend Dr. Alibhai?
In December 2018, Dr. Alibhai performed a "paraesophageal hernia repair with fundiplication" on me. I had a huge hiatal hernia that allowed my stomach to move upward, putting a z-bend in my esophagus. I frequently developed food blockages in my throat that took 4-12 hours (that's right) to clear. Steak and hamburgers were on my "do not touch" list. I also had intermittent reflux issues. My return to normalcy was gradual over about 3 months. Two years later, I am still delighted with my outcome; not only is my swallowing function as good as it always has been, but I've had no reflux experience post-surgery. A surprise benefit is that my cardio workouts prove my respiratory function improvement as a result of my stomach no longer crowding my lungs. Dr. Alibhai was the model of a patient, considerate physician; he took great pains to explain my conditions and the repair procedure. He is and outstanding physician, one of the most memorable I have had in my 70 years.
