He took care of my aunt on 2 separate occasions. He saved her life with a emergency hernia surgery and the second surgery was a gastric sleeve. He is amazing dr. He treats us like family.

Took the time he needed to make sure I had the best outcome possible. I had gall bladder surgery..and he could of just opened me up when it became complicated.. But he took the time to find a way around it..so I could heal much faster...great doctor

He was the kindest doctor. I know many people have bad results but do you really think the doctor planned on hurting anyone or didn't want to help you. No this an is genuine he is the best. My husband had him do his surgery and it went well I went to another doctor and was so sick for over a year throwing up even water. I needed help after and he took me on without a flinch. And I was 46o so I could just die on the table. We must remember that being overweight is a very high risk. Please don't hurt this man who is so good. He saved my life. I would be dead if not for this lovely sweet man. So look at the situation before you try to ruin anyone's life that doesn't want to hurt you.

This has been the worst experience ever!!! He screwed up my moms surgery and created A LOT of problems for her!! She has now been in the hospital for 30 days and we do not know when she will be well enough to leave to go to rehab!! She doesn't even get to go home!!! I would NEVER recommend him or this surgery to anyone!!!

Staff was very inconsiderate, would not return calls, and fraudently led me on for 3 mos. Let unnecessary test be charged to my insurance and collected cash from me knowing I was not eligible for surgery from the very beginning. Was told if I passed pshycological exam I could have the surgery. Another unnecessary charge to my insurance.

this is a doctor I would be very careful about seeing. My mother was damaged almost beyond repair by this man and his staff and is still suffering now almost 4 months later after a surgery in which was suppose to have a recovery of 6 weeks.
