Albany Med General Surgery: Ankesh Nigam MD, FACS

Dr. Nigam just removed a tumor from a dangerous and difficult area. It was a complicated surgery and his skills were literally life-saving.
He's intelligent and compassionate. *Most outstanding, and a rare quality today among doctors...is his ability to be a good listener and ask the right questions.

He was very patient in answering my questions most of them before I even ask them. So great!

Dr Nigam was the kindest most professional compassionate doctor I have ever had the opportunity to have an appointment with. His bedside manner is outstanding and goes beyond the call of duty in dealing with patient concerns. He is amazing and I highly recommend him Also his nursing office staff need to be commended as well.

We had an excellent experience with Dr. Nigam. We trust him and highly recommend him for a Whipple procedure. He was thorough, supportive and dependable all through the process as well as the surgery for my mother.

Dr. Nigam was great. I had to have a liver resection. It was a week and a half in the hospital but he's a great surgeon. I have a scar that's about a foot long, but it's healing great. He is funny and helpful. He is understanding and provides great after care.
