Caring, compassionate, excellent work. Thank you, Dr. Caluda! And he has done 4 different surgeries on a friend over a period of years, and both she and her husband sing Dr. Caluda's praises too.

Dr. Leahy is an exceptional surgeon! She was thorough in reviewing over my symptoms with me and provided care that my referring doctors had not. After a long road, I am finally feeling better thanks to my surgery! She and nurse Sally have been so caring and concerned post-surgery. The whole staff is wonderful and friendly. I highly recommend Dr. Leahy and this group!

The staff that cared for me was absolutely wonderful!! I was taken care of very well & most needs were cared for! They followed up a day or so later to see how I was.If you're doing minor outpatient surgery I would go here before any hospital!!!

I have been working in imaging since 2002. This has given me the opportunity to see numerous cases that Dr. Caluda has performed throughout the years. Both my daughter and husband have been his patient, as a result of witnessing his fabulous work. There is no way to express how happy I was with his MA Maggie because she helped me tremendously!!!

My own bariatric surgeon would not listen to me. Days after my surgery I became very ill.This went on about three weeks.Fortunately Dr.Lord was covering for him when he went on vacation, and he did listen to me. He ran some test and determined I had a complete bowel blockage.He performed emergency surgery on me. My intestines literally fell apart in his hands. Days later he told me how dire my situation really was.That was in 2013. There is not a day that goes by that I don't think about him.I always tell every one the Lord saved me twice that night. The Lord above and Dr. Lord my hero.

The wait was long, but I work in the medical field and know it's to be expected. Dr. Caluda was friendly, courteous, respectful, and knowledgeable. His MA Maggie was very nice and Darcy the surgery scheduler was sweet and helpful. I hate the circumstances under which we met, but I feel comfortable in their hands.
