Patient Reviews
Jan 01, 2026
I was in an emergency situation due to extreme pain in my stomach. My gallbladder was infected with stones and in septic condition. Dr. Zerfas attended my case in her busy schedule and safely removed gallbladder in an emergency surgery. Her service was very exceptional, professional, and compassionate.
