Patient Satisfaction

How likely are you to recommend Dr. Velanovich?
Dr Velanovich did my Nissen Fundoplication surgery in 2012 at TGH. I had been suffering from acid reflux most of my life. Over the years I have had all of my teeth replaced with crowns; bridges; and implants due to stomach acid wearing away my enamel. I also had a hiatal hernia. Sleeping a whole night through without reflux coming up causing me to throw up due to the reflux was a rarity. He repaired the hernia and fixed the reflux. The absolutely best surgery I have ever had! Thank you forever!
