Dr. Anderson is very professional!

Dr Anderson was great. Took his time and explained everything. If this happened again I would only have surgery by him. Take care of this Dr PIH. Don't let him retire.

We loved seeing Nurse (name removed)! It had been years, but she still remembered us! ?

Dr. Anderson is the bomb. He solved a problem for me that had landed me in the hospital for almost off and on for six weeks. And with a simple low tech solution, non-surgical solution, I've been out of the hospital for over a month. And I'm very, very happy about that.

Dr. Anderson made me feel very comfortable the day and after my surgery. He took in consideration all of my questions, all my doubts, and he made me feel really, really assured the day of my surgery and even after. I really recommend this doctor, 10 out of 10.

Doctor Anderson has gone above and beyond with his care in my Gallbladder removal. I would recommend him and PIH because of his professionalism and true care for his patients.

Yes, this is (PHI removed). First, I wanted to say the first two answers that I gave, I meant to put four, but I haven't had my numbers up in time. So I wanted to get that clear. And secondly, I want to say that Dr. Anderson was wonderful. It was an emergency surgery I had to have done, and he went in and did a wonderful job. I'm very grateful. And I just want to pass that on. He's done great. So anyway, with what I had done, it was kind of a little iffy. So I appreciate everything that him and his staff did. So anyway, thank you.

Dr. Anderson is an amazing physician and surgeon. He literally saved my life with the emergency surgery that he performed on me. I trust Dr. Anderson with my life and I highly recommend him to others.
