Dr. Dugan was on call when it was discovered I had a bowel obstruction. A CT revealed I had a closed loop obstruction requiring emergency surgery. He got to the hospital quickly and I had surgery within the hour. Dr. Dugan saved my life. I will always be grateful to him. Despite his high skill levels and talent he’s a very nice person.

I can’t thank Dr. Dugan enough for what he’s done for my mom. For three long years, she was suffering from extreme fatigue, and no one could figure out why. We went down so many medical paths, tried so many solutions, but nothing brought her back to the woman we knew. When it came time for her gallbladder to be removed, her previous surgeon didn’t want to operate due to her condition. But Dr. Dugan truly listened he took the time to hear my concerns, to understand the full picture, and to make a decision that ultimately changed everything. After her surgery, it was like watching the light switch back on. She was dancing at home from the hospital, smiling again, full of energy, and doing things she hasn’t been able to do in years. It felt like I got my mom back. ✨ Dr. Dugan isn’t just an exceptional surgeon he’s compassionate, thorough, and truly dedicated to his patients. If I could give him 10 stars, I absolutely would. Trust him. He gave my family a piece of our world back, and I will be forever grateful.
