How likely are you to recommend Dr. Battafarano?
Dr B. is a brilliant surgeon. I had an esophagectomy performed by Dr. B. with little or no complications. I was fortunate to have him as my surgeon. His positive pep talks helped get through the tough recovery. He is a kind and caring doctor who you can trust with your life. I can not say enough great things about him. If you find yourself with esophageal cancer, this is the man you want to be your surgeon.
