Care That Restores Health, Trust, & Peace of Mind

After years of pain and unsuccessful surgeries, this patient finally found relief from symptoms she’d lived with for nearly a decade at Stormont Vail through Dr. Partha Bhurtel’s revision bariatric surgery and hiatal hernia repair.

“I was well aware of the complexity of my case. Several doctors from different states said it was beyond their skill set… Dr. Bhurtel took time to explain every step and instilled confidence in me and my husband.”

With the support of a responsive, caring nursing team—and the comfort of having her husband by her side—her recovery was smooth and reassuring.

“I can lay prone [face down] for the first time in nearly a decade… I am well on my way to full recovery.”

Today, she describes her care at Stormont Vail as exceptional and life‑changing.

“I am incredibly thankful for his [Dr. Bhurtel’s] talents and training because it has blessed me with the gift of health.”
