The pain Angie Eckert felt in her chest was close enough to her heart that she made the smart decision to go to the emergency room. Thankfully, the problem wasn't her heart but her gallbladder. She was referred to Dr. Kevin Barnett of Lincoln Surgical Associates for her care. Angie commends Dr. Barnett for developing a clear plan for her gallbladder surgery and recovery. Watch her story to see what else she appreciates about Dr. Barnett. https://www.lincolnsurgical.com/surgeon/kevin-t-barnett

Dr. Lance Hale, a general and minimally invasive surgeon, received this five-star review from a patient! Here's what else the patient had to say, "Not only is he a wonderful surgeon, he’s very kind. Before surgery he explained everything to us and when surgery was done he called my husband personally and went over the details. Morning after surgery he came in my room to check on me. Highly recommend him." Learn more about Dr. Hale at https://www.lincolnsurgical.com/surgeon/lyman-lance-hale-iv
