• Yes, I have been seeing Dr. Todd for a few years now. He is always so kind to me. He is patient with me more than anything, which I am so appreciative because he knows how scared I am of some things that might come up. But he is absolutely the most wonderful, the most kindest. He is just, he gets it. He got his bedside manner 101 right away. He's wonderful. I love him. I don't always want to see him as we know why, but when I have to, yes, I have to, but I would highly recommend anybody, and I mean anybody, to see him because he is so gentle, and he is so kind, and he is very considerate, and he listens to your concerns. Thank you very much.

• Dr. Francone was amazing. He explained the procedure thoroughly and took his time with me. He answered all my questions and didn't rush through anything. I am so impressed with the pre and post surgery instructions. I feel much better knowing what to expect and how to prepare my body for surgery. I am grateful to be in Dr. Francone's care!

• Dr. Francone was very professional. He coordinated well with my gastroenterologist at Emerson Hospital. He explained everything thoroughly, explained what happens next and the process that they went through, gave me as much information as I needed, seemed patient and treated me with respect and talked me through the entire process. He was wonderful. I'm so happy that I found him and hopefully I don't need him anymore, but if I do need a colorectal surgeon, he is the one that I will definitely go to and recommend to anyone else I know that might need one.
