I went to see Dr. Small for a follow up on boils. I had one on my backside and would continually get them on my back and sometimes under arms. The one on my backside had been an ongoing issue. I would seem fine at times and then get to the point where sitting down was very painful. When I saw Dr. Small and his staff I was greeted nicely, they all worked to get me in and out with sufficiency. Dr. Small was cleary knowledgable in his feild and had a great way of explaining things to me that I normally woulldn't have understood. We had to set up a surgery for my backside to have the infection laser removed and everything went off without a hitch. I recovered well and even had another one removed from my neck. Since I appairently have a sweatglan issue I will be seeing him in the future and would recommend anybody that has my kind of medical issues to him.

I had surgery with Dr Smsll I followed all of his directions and instructions. I went from a size 18 to a size zero and that was almost three years ago. I'm still a size zero and NO MORE HEALTH ISSUES. That's the most important part to me. He literally saved my life. The surgery was THE BEST decision of my life. I woke up with zero pain and was happy and excited at how awesome everything went. Would STRONGLY encourage anyone considering weight loss surgery do it. Do it for YOU AND YOUR FAMILY. and have Dr Small do it if you want the BEST SURGEON EVER!!!!!!
