My hernia surgery with Dr. Artz went terribly wrong. From the moment I woke up, I was in severe, constant pain that never improved. Despite repeatedly asking for help, I was told to “use more ice,” even weeks later when I could barely walk or sit. Ten months later, I’m still dealing with nerve damage and ongoing pain.What frustrates me most isn’t just the surgical outcome, but the lack of compassion or follow-up care. I had to find a specialist out of state to start repairing the damage. Dr. Artz may pride herself on perform... read more

Dr Artz butchered me during a simple Hernia operation 4 years ago. I now no longer have ana bdominal core and I am in constant pain. She was so proud in performing "faster than normal."IMO this doctor is a hack and should be avoided at all costs.

Dr Artz fixed my right side hernia in 2016, she did a great job then, no complications, everything worked out so well. Flash forward to 09-24 and she repaired the other side, but this time the left hernia was done with the robot. Unbelievable. Half the recovery time, felt great 10 days later, had to control myself to follow her instructions for another 32 days. She is the best, there are no downsides to her skill and demeanor. 2 for 2 Dr Artz, you are amazing!

Dr Katie Artz performed abdominal hernia repair for me in June 2024. At the pre-op exam she was very focused on my history of colon cancer removal in June 2023 and the reports and scans that were available. She knew right away her approach. She recommended robotic out patient surgery at St Joe's Hospital. The surgery was done exactly as scheduled. Pain management went well as I followed her recommended OTC pain meds. no narcotics. Her office staff was also excellent., I would definitely recommend Dr Artz.

There is no mystery on why Dr. Katie Artz is ranked as one of the best surgeons. I recently (12/2023) had my gallbladder removed and had the best ever experience with Dr Artz and her staff. From the pre-op consultation to the post-op follow-up, I found the experience stress free, easy and highly professional. Dr. Artz reviewed the whole process in a simple and straight forward manner while answering all my questions with the appropriate amount of detail. I could tell by the first office visit that I would be treated with gre... read more

Dr. Artz is amazing, simply amazing. If I could, I would award 10 stars for her professionalism, expertise and manner. No pain after surgery. Took 1 acetaminophen after outpatient surgery for hernia repair. I was sore for a day or two but had no pain. Amazing, simply amazing.

Dr Artz removed my gall bladder due to it having an infection. The procedure was quite fast and Dr Artz was her normal charming self. This is the second surgery she has performed on me and I can highly recommend her. She listens to her patients and gives you all the options. Follow up is great as well.
