Dr. Hanna performed my lapband surgery on June 8th, 2011. Dr. Hanna is extremely professional, knowledgeable, and intelligent. He really knows what he's doing and what he's talking about. Above all, Dr. Hanna really cares, and he and his staff bent over backwards to accomodate my needs. He is a kind, compassionate person as well as a great doctor. I felt safe, well-cared for, and calm the entire time. Not only that, the surgical staff at Ukiah Valley Medical Center are superb. They were all professional, kind, and knowledgeable; I really feel blessed to have gotten surgery there. It was worth the 8+ hour drive from my home town.
Thank you so much for everything Dr. Hanna, Debbie, Jessica, Julie, and all of the other great staff at the hospital; and of course to my stepdad Michael for facilitating everything for me.
