Patient Reviews
May 18, 2023
I had 3 failed procedures with another skilled Doctor and ended up in pain severe enough to require 5 months of hydromorphone. What another highly skilled Dr. could not do was done by him and his team & the incredible Dr. Cho in one attempt. I did not need to get 1/3 of my organ removed or increase my chance of diabetes. He replaced the initial metal stent with a synthetic one (who wants to go around setting off theft alarms at Burlington Coat Factory.) This morning I woke up in pain but able to lift both my arms into the air and stretched for the first time in almost half a year. I highly recommend you go to Dr. Poneros from the very beginning to avoid medication issues or a need to taper. I may be been under-prescribed due to my medication history but I'll take five or six days of discomfort/considerable pain over losing a third of my pancreas. Pain passes, diabetes doesn't. Don't expect him to prescribe medications that other doctors don't even warn you are dangerous.
