Donald Garrow M.D. - Punta Gorda (FL)

5 /5 Robert Vogel: Dr Garrow was one of the best GI docs I had. When I met him in the hospital he told me none of his crohns patients are in the hospital and I said exactly that’s why I want you as my doc.. and he kept me out of the hospital and kept my crohns under control.. I am still saddened by his sudden passing.

1 /5 Jen Bettencourt: This physician put my life in literal danger. I had a chronic issue with my gallbladder that was making me EXTREMELY sick. Instead of taking my gallbladder out when he had me under, a stent was put in without any tests or follow up tests. When the stent came out & my symptoms returned & i went to him for a floow up, he wrote me off saying "its probably just anxiety". If it wasnt for my primary doctor sending me out of town to tenacious specialist, we would have never found out my gallbladder had a birth defect, making it half the size is supposed to be & that it was in the wrong place. It was also, one giant gallstone inside with an infection that could have killed me in a matter of hours had my gallbladder ruptured. We wouldnt have found out it had migrated, attached to my intestines & was slowly choking them out. It would not have been discovered that the damage from my gallbladder created a hole in my intestinesto the point they had to be clipped & sowen back together. After I got out of surgery I was told I was lucky to be alive. Another 6 months & I would have been dead by any number of issues caused by Dr. Garrows neglect.

5 /5 Shaunessy Lucas: My husband was diagnosed with stage 4 colon cancer. Dr. Garrow was very caring and extremity hopeful rather then negative. Even after the appointment I recieved a call just to see how we were doing and if we needed anything going forward to please reachout. I have and would recommend him anytime!

5 /5 Jean Lener: I loved Dr Garrow he is the only one who found my problem and just fixed it 2 weeks ago. I am sad at his passing and I send my deepest sympathy to his family. I met his children at his office I know that he will be greatly missed. The last time I saw him was when he was going to remove my stent. I was all set up and he bent down close to my face so he could see my eyes I know he was smiling it showed in his eyes. I will keep that picture in my mind until I die. God Bless

5 /5 Darlene Cassada: So thankful to have found Dr. Garrow. He is so knowledgeable and makes his patients feel so comfortable. AND I can’t say enough about Remi!!! She worked and worked for me to try to get my insurance to cover a very expensive prescription. They would not, so she got it set it up with Express Scripts so that I am able to get it at home for a fraction of what it would have cost me. I will be forever grateful to her!!!
