Patient Reviews
Jul 02, 2018
From the moment that I sat in on his seminar i knew I was lead in the right direction! After all he was the only surgeon I researched. He explained everything openly from day 1! His staff is so professional and welcoming, they don't treat you like another number of the list, they care and check up on you during your career. I started with Dr. Turton in February 2017 i was sleeved August 7th 2017. I went in at 275lbs and at 11months post op I'm 198.6lbs Thank you for my tool
