Dr. Anuj Dua - What a wonderful surgeon Dr. Dua is! My husband was in the hospital with gallbladder pain and Dr. Dua was called in for a surgical consult. After reviewing my husband's CT scan, he said that there was so much infection in the gallbladder that he couldn't operate on him until the infection was gone. He didn't want to send my husband home due to the fact he would receive antibiotics through an IV and that would work faster than sending him home and taking pills plus my husband was in so much pain, he was given pain meds through his IV as well.
My husband's WBC went down and Dr. Dua was notified. He came in during a snow storm on a Saturday to perform surgery. He called in a team who he knew would be able to come in safely and they operated on my husband. After the surgery was over, Dr. Dua came out to talk to me. He said that even though my husband's WBC was down and it was good to perform surgery, he told me my husband's gallbladder was full of infection, which surprised him very much. He proceeded to tell me that any other surgeon, probably would have cut into my husband to get his gallbladder out due to what my husbands looked like. Dr. Dua said he was able to remove my husband's gallbladder laparoscopic. What a relief I felt knowing he could do this. Quicker healing, out of the hospital in a day if WBC was normal.
Thank you so much Dr. Dua for performing a successful gallbladder surgery on my husband. His recovery has been remarkable and he feels 100% better. Also, I thank you for coming in during the snow storm. I know you could have called and said you would do int the next day, but you went beyond the call of duty, along with your team, to perform a successful gallbladder removal in my husband.
