William L • February 20, 2022

I am thoroughly impressed with Dr. Michael Hughes and his staff. I believe without a doubt that he saved my life last year when first performed a pyloroplasty in May, 2021, and then implanted a gastric stimulator in July of 2021. I have diabetic gastroparesis and was hospitalized early in 2021 because I was so dehydrated, and my electrolytes were completely out of balance. I don’t know what I would have done if we hadn’t fond Vanguard Surgical!
