Dr. Mark Edwards and the team at Franciscan Physician Network Indy Southside Surgical delivered exceptional care that has genuinely changed my life. After years of significant reflux and Barrett’s-related issues, Dr. Edwards performed my hiatal hernia repair with skill and clear communication every step of the way. During my follow-up visit I found myself thanking him multiple times and became emotional trying to express how grateful I am. The difference in my daily quality of life has been dramatic. I am already back to regular 5K walks and feeling better than I have in years. This level of surgical expertise combined with genuine patient-centered care is exactly what patients hope for and what healthcare systems should be proud of. I would recommend Dr. Edwards and this practice without hesitation.
