Patient Reviews
Sep 08, 2023
I had to have an emergency appendectomy. Dr. Bowers was very kind and informative. I was in a lot of pain and he viewed my medical condition as having the utmost importance. Unfortunately, I have had to deal with several surgeons in Valdosta and would not give them 1 star. Dr. Bowers is a professional yet has the bedside manner of a dear friend. I highly recommend 5 stars out of 5.

What’s a board certification and why is it important that my provider has one?

A board certification represents a provider’s dedication to ongoing training in one or more specialties, including the completion of intensive exams.
