Dr. Michael Algirdas Veliuona

I was hospitalized with severe abdominal pain, vomiting, diarrhea, bloody stool. I've been seeing my reg dr for gallbladder issues for over a month waiting to get a hida scan, when Dr. V told me my gallbladder and intestinal issues were two totally separate things and refused to discuss anything further about my gallbladder. I was treated for colitis, he explained sometimes 'it just happens'. He even told my husband while I was out for my colonoscopy, "she seems very fixated on her gallbladder doesn't she". Come to find out my gallbladder is overactive (a rare but possible disease-Hyperbiliary Kinesia), producing an output of bile at 96% when normal function is 30-80%...which means while I was on a clear liquid diet for a week, the massive output of bile could have wreaked havoc in my intestines causing colitis, causing pain, causing all my symptoms. But yet he insisted my gallbladder had NOTHING to do with my symptoms.

He is a very caring doctor. Never feel rushed. Confident in his care and recommendations.

He is wonderful . I have to be dilated like every 3 or 4 months and when I call he always gets me in soon.
