I was referred to Dr Gorham by Dr Lammi she was a great Dr and I trusted her referral to Dr Gorham . I had a second GI Surgery which could have been avoided if done properly in the first place . Dr Gorham put all options on the table and was very informative on her plan to fix many issues I have had for some time. Dr Gorham and her team were all very amazing and caring before during and after surgery. I am healing ok it's just going to take some time and lots of rest . I have don't all asked if me taking it slow it's a process I know I am going to heal well and I have Dr Gorham and team to thank for all of this . I highly recommend her as a great caring Surgeon . I thank her for this chance to live a better life .
