Patient Reviews
Dec 11, 2024
I was very nervous but determined to start my weight loss journey. Dr Pilcher is an amazing doctor. He made me feel comfortable from the first meeting. The surgery was so smooth for me. I asked him did he anything? I know not everyone is the same but for me, he made it such a comfortable experience. Throughout my journey he has made himself available anytime I had questions or concerns. He has numerous videos on YouTube to watch to understand what he talks about. I am so thankful for such a caring and supportive doctor. I would recommend Dr Pilcher to anyone who is ready to start their weight loss journey.
