Dr Appresai is a very caring, compassionate and respectful doctor. He took the time to answer any questions and I never felt rushed. He was very thorough on explaining the gallbladder surgery and making me feel comfortable on my decision. It has been over 2 months since my surgery. I have little to no scarring and had virtually no pain since the surgery. I highly recommend Dr Appresai to anyone that needs to have their gallbladder removed. I couldn't have asked for a better surgeon.

First met Dr Appersai when admitted to PMC for appendicitis. Turned out to be a serious bowel infection requiring emer colon resection. Also repaired stomach hernia. Very pleasant manor. Excellent appearance & bedside manor. SEES you while inpatient. Very caring & compassionate. Explains treatment & diagnosis. WILL NOT let you hurt in the hosp. Does thorough follow up. Even gave me his personal phone #. HIGHLY recommended. I won't see another surgeon.

Dr. Appresai has saved my life in many different ways. Dr. Appresai is my lapband doctor. Three months after my lapband surgery I found out I had stage 3 uterine cancer. After cancer surgery I had 2 infection surgeries and Dr. Appresai managed my care. He is an unbelievable doctor but even a better caring human being. If I could give a rating higher than 5 stars I would.
