How likely are you to recommend Dr. Patterson?
I would definitely recommend Dr. Patterson. I had pancreatitis and Dr. Patterson recommended removing my gall bladder to heal the pancreas. I had seen several doctors and had under gone every test to find the problem and I was told over and over that my gall bladder was not the problem. Dr. Patterson listened to my symptoms and overall health problems and recommended removing my gall bladder. It turned out that he was right. I had tiny undetectable gall stones and a fatty gall bladder caused from inflammation. The surgery could not have gone better. It is hard to believe, but I had no pain after the surgery. Recovery has been amazingly smooth. Incisions are healing well. I am very grateful to Dr. Patterson.
