Karishma K. - "Dr. Raghavan operated on my umbilical hernia. The experience all the way from the first appointment to post operative care and recovery was absolutely amazing. At my first appointment he very patiently educated me on the hernia and the procedure. He listened to all my concerns and answered all my questions patiently. Right after the procedure he shared with my husband the images of the procedure and details about the post operative care.
Dr. Raghavan is very personable, kind, and competent. I highly recommend him and his practice for hernia care."

Ryan C. - "I recently had a hemorrhoidectomy from Dr. Raghavan. He was very helpful in helping me to understand what to expect with the surgery. Post surgery recovery has been as described, although I did have a couple of concerns. I saw Dr. Ragavhan on a Monday, and I was in for surgery that Friday. Once I arrived at the hospital I was taken back immediately, everyone was very kind and made sure I was comfortable. Incredible experience, for a dreaded procedure. I received same day appointments twice to see the doctor to address my post surgery concerns. Overall Dr. Raghavan has been excellent. I wouldn’t hesitate to recommend him or his staff."
