Patient Reviews
Jan 31, 2018
Dr. Naveen Ballem is a truly caring Dr. As an overweight patient, he makes you feel that there is HOPE and that there is a light at the end of the tunnel. He is not demeaning in any way whatsoever. He understands the problems faced by obese patients daily. He is totally attentive and takes time to listen to the patient. I was a morbidly obese patient of Dr. Ballem's six years ago and now thanks to Gastric Bypass surgery, I lost 182 pounds and am maintaining that loss. Make an appointment.
