This doctor saved my colon and ileocecal valve! My gastroenterologist from Presence/Resurrection hospital did my first colonoscopy and told me I needed surgery. My sister had previously been to Northwestern for successful brain surgery for trigeminal neuralgia. So I started researching and found Dr Keswani specialized in large difficult polyp removal (EMR) through a colonoscopy. I am so grateful for his skill and the care he gave me and follow up. Amazing doctor! Kept me from having unnecessary surgery. Thank you so much!!!
