Great surgeon! That’s an old picture though. I Very gentle and a recovered well with hardly a scar. Very easy to schedule and get checked in for consultation. Surgery was at Ascension Midtown and they were fantastic! Make sure you get Ascension’s app so you can get your pathology reports very quickly.

After getting the diagnosis of breast cancer, I was a devastated! Dr. Cooper spent an hour with me and my family discussing everything pertaining to my care. I felt like he cared about me not only as a patient, but as a person. Thank you for your care.

I have been with Dr. Cooper for over 10 years. I will never go to anyone else. I had two cysts removed over the years. I was so scared. His bedside manner is impeccable. His nurse karen is amazing. I see him every year after each mammogram. He is an outstanding surgeon and a wonderful soul. He makes you feel very comfortable and explains everything so you really know what is going on. I trusts my breasts to "no one else".

Dr. Cooper is an excellent surgeon. He is a very knowledgeable and caring individual. He removed my gallbladder and I felt no pain or discomfort after the procedure. It was a quick recovery. I have recommended him to all of my friends who need a surgeon and will continue to recommend him. All of my friends along with myself think he is the best surgeon in Nashville.

It is apparent that Dr. Cooper really cares about his patients. He is knowledge and takes the time needed to explain the problem and how to best deal with it. I would highly recommend him to anyone who needs a general surgeon, particularly in the are of breast cancers or other similar concerns.
