At Phoenix Unified Surgeons, we specialize in appendectomy surgery and are here to help you determine if this surgery is right for you. If you are experiencing appendicitis, we can perform this procedure to remove your appendix and alleviate your symptoms. But why do you need your appendix out? In some cases, the appendix can become inflamed and infected, causing severe pain and discomfort. It is a common condition that affects many people, and surgery is often necessary to correct the problem. Rest assured that our very experienced surgeons, Drs. Fox-McClary, Cammarata & Brizendine, have the knowledge and expertise to get you back to feeling like yourself again. If you are in the hospital or ER, contact our office today so that we can have one of our surgeons come and evaluate you.
