My sister was a recent patient of Dr Nitzkorski. She had emergency surgery on her colon. I spoke with him several times after surgery and found him to be knowledgeable, kind, upbeat inspite of the ultimate diagnosis. Most importantly he was honest. He spent time explaining the surgery, diagnosis and treatment to my sister and the family. I think he is a great asset to the hospital and . would recommend him to others. I thank him for the kindness he showed us.
