Hi my name is Annette G Layne I came to Dr Tanner desperately broken as being a woman weighing 394 lbs with no hope. BUT he took me in as a patient, THANK GOD !!! I’ll forever be grateful because as of today I weigh 143 lbs... If not for this dr doing gastric bypass surgery on me with the assistance of Dr Allen I’m not sure I’d be alive today. So THANK YOU DR TANNER !!!!

I had a slipped lap band and needed it removed ASAP! Dr Tanner accepted me as a xfer patient from another MD, removed my band the next morning, and I feel 1000% better! He was wonderful! He listens and seems genuinely concerned!

I LoVe, LOVE, love this doctor. I should have chosen him when I decided to finally have my surgery. He listens, is so very kind and takes the time to answer all my question, no matter how long our appointment is. He took out my gallbladder the day after Thanksgiving....He took my call early Thanksgiving morning, told the hospital I was being admitted and arrived at the hospital to assure me everything was going to be alright and I would see him in the operation room the following day. The surgery was a breeze. When I have an adjustment he never hurts me. This guy is so amazing. You can have the "thin" life you deserve. When you were a teenager and you were struggling with food, you don't have to as an adult. Allow Dr. Tanner to help you and you'll never regret it.
