Patient Reviews
Jul 27, 2023
I was part of his bariatric travel program and couldn't be happier. I love the attention they pay to possible complications and how to prevent them. The surgery went very well and I was back at work the following week. His office staff is friendly and informative and happy to answer any questions I had.
