Michael E. Bertocchi, M.D.,F.A.C.S.

Dr. Bertocchi is an incredible surgeon. He discussed exactly what was going on with my wife and what the surgery would do. He gave us enormous hope in a time that we were devastated.

Excellent surgeon. Had a hernia repair and results better than expected. Great bedside manner, and was comforting and informative. Took the time to answer all my questions. Quick and easy surgery and I'm doing great. Lots of general surgeons around, but not the quality of Dr. Bertocchi.

I've had three experiences with Dr Bertocchi and his office. First, (as an aside and additional recommendation) my wife had abdominal surgery performed by one of his team (Dr Rogness).

What a different and refreshing take on prior experiences I've had with other doctors (especially surgeons) who in the past had tried to instill fear as a means of rushing me into a potentially dangerous procedure (and making me feel like a was a paycheck waiting to b

Couldn't have asked for a better surgeon to be working when I needed an appendectomy. Made sure I was comfortable, answered all my questions and spoke to me like I was a person, not just another patient.
