"Dr. Prasad at Far North Surgery is phenomenal. I have a rare disorder and he made sure to to openly communicate with myself and my husband throughout. Dr.. Prasad accommodated me to ensure I was safe from beginning to end. He was also very cognizant of my schedule and tried his best to work with my schedule when it came to scheduling the surgery. His aftercare was also phenomenal as he kept himself available in case I had any complications. I would highly recommend coming her for your surgical needs."

"I have used Dr. Prasad for 3 surgeries5/19/2020, 3/18/2021 and 5/17/202. I would highly recommend him and Dr. Johnson I would personally not use anyone else! On May 19 2020, I had Dr Parsad perform a colectomy on me. He is kind and knowledgeable, he will talk to you and give you all you need to have confidence in him.
I feel he is very easy to work with and as I have at least one other surgery on the horizon I wish I was able to make home a permanent fixture on my medical team."

"After my wife was diagnosed with Pancreatic cancer we were devastated. Her Oncologist refered us to Far North Surgery and Dr. Prasad. Dr. Prasad was very thorough in his explanation of our treatment options which helped to ease our angst. After some grueling pre-operative treatments Dr. Prasad performed very difficult complicated surgery with success.
Although her war isn't over we can say we are winning the battles. We are very thankful for Dr. Prasad's skills and his compassion. He may be too humble to say this about himself, but in our hearts and eyes he truly is the best surgeon in Alaska."

Dr Prasad has been wonderful. I had a rare and complicated condition and he treated me with more respect and decency than most other doctors or surgeons ever have. He was informative, proactive and followed up with me a number of times when I was recovering in the hospital.
I had some issues with the staff at his office at first but he seemed appreciative of my concerns. I would recommend anyone in need of a great surgeon to make an appointment with him. He does amazing work.

Wonderful doctor & surgeon

Dr. Prasad was very caring & compassionate, as well as being an extremely talented surgeon! He explained everything about my medical issue, and described the procedure, the recovery & the healing process, in advance of the surgery. He truly instilled in me a sense of calm & trust, which was important going in on a big surgery like mine. I'm so grateful to have been referred to him, and am so happy to be well now, thanks to Dr. Prasad.

"From the first visit, Dr. Prasad and staff made me feel very comfortable. His ability to make me feel like a person and not a number was very much appreciated. Now recovering from a 01/27/22 hernia surgery and recovery is coming along quite nicely! Everyone at hospital had nothing but high praise for Dr. Prasad, which made me feel more comfortable that I had made a good choice for a surgeon for the operation. Dr. Prasad called me the very next morning after surgery to see how I was faring, which solidified my choice of Doctor. If my treatment so far is an indication of recovery, then everything will be awesome! I will leave another review after totally healed and 100%"

"While recently I was unfortunate to need gallbladder surgery, I was fortunate indeed to be referred to Dr. Prasad. I found him to be patient, caring, compassionate and knowledgeable. While obviously busy he took all the time needed to ensure I fully understood my diagnosis, various options and their likely outcomes. He did this in a friendly, easy manner, never pushy or condescending. I felt treated as if I was a good and valued friend or family. This professional, excellent and conscientious care is carried over to all the staff I interacted with as well. Everyone made me feel as if they truly cared and wanted to help as much as possible. I wholeheartedly recommend Dr. Prasad, he was everything and more that I would want in a surgeon."

"I’ve been in the office twice. Bothe times, I left feeling valued as a patient. I wasn’t rushed, I was listened to, and was treated like an old friend. I am a big Dr. Prasad fan and would recommend him and his staff to anyone."

"Recommended by my family practitioner, Dr. Prasad was a great choice to repair my hernia. He explained in detail each step of the procedure and what to expect in recovery. Dr. Prasad employed a robot assisted surgical technique that was minimally invasive and recovery time was short. I found him to be very personable and approachable. Dr. Prasad is a highly rated surgeon, and understandably so."

"What are the top three qualities that are most important in a surgeon? For me, they are skill, empathy and commitment. In my experience, Dr. Prasad scores top marks in all three areas. My surgery was handled with the highest degree of skill. And, Dr. Prasad made me feel heard, answering all my questions and concerns. Dr. Prasad is obviously committed to his profession. I’m sure he’s the kind of person that stays up late pouring over medical journals and is open to learning new cutting-edge techniques. Plus, I called his practice late one afternoon, expecting to leave a message and he actually answered his own phone and helped me with my inquiry. In short, I was impressed with Dr. Prasad and I’d recommend his care to my dearest friends and family."

"In 2014 my wife was told that she had pancreatic cancer. Devastating words to hear. Right from the very first meeting with Dr. Prasad we were put at ease by his comfortable and reassuring bedside manner. After taking time to extensively review her medical records he assured us not all hope was lost but that she would have to undergo a very critical operation called a "Whipple Procedure." It was the first time we had heard we could get through pancreatic cancer. Five years later my wife is still cancer free. During the whole process what my wife and I appreciated the most was how well informed Dr. Prasad and his team kept us during both the downhill days and the good days. He would show up in the middle of the night to check in on my wife to see how she was doing and was always attentive to our questions and concerns until he knew we understood his answers. We are forever grateful for the extra time we now have and highly recommend Dr. Prasad and his team at Far North Surgery."

"Dr. Prasad and his team deliver first class care in a first class way. From end to end I felt like I was his only patient and that this was his most important surgery (even though it was a routine hernia surgery.) Recovery has been excellent and he took time to explain the procedure, what to expect, potential complications, etc. He gave me peace of mind that I was in the right place. I've already recommended a colleague to Far North Surgery and, should you need surgery, I recommend you, too."

Dr. Prasad is, "the real deal". His truly outstanding skills are only exceeded by his genuine humility. He reminds me of the TV commercial, "Live Your Faith; Light the World". He repaired my right and left inguinal hernias and a colon adhesion as well.
