Had my gallbladder removed last month. The first few days were rough, I won't lie. But Dr. Pophale's team had a clear plan for the pain. They didn't just throw pills at me; they explained what to expect and when to call. The follow-up call to check on my pain levels really helped. I'm moving around much easier now, finally feeling like myself again.

After years of putting it off, I finally got my hernia fixed with Dr. Pophale. What a relief! The difference is night and day. The procedure itself was smooth, and he has a great sense of humor which really put me at ease. No more constant discomfort. I should have done this ages ago!
