10/16/2025

Without his input, the emergency room was going to send me home when I had a leaky appendix. Last year, When they said they were going to release me from ER and everything was ok,, I said that Dr Vavra had written some notes in my chart. They read the notes, the. Sent me for a cat scan and I had an appendectomy. I have a good amount of confidence in Dr Vavra.
