I had surgery in Aug of 18. I went for a follow up and he was gone. No notice, no forwarding info, no letter, not a thing. He could care less about patents and just wants money. I asked for advice from him about which surgery would be best for me and he actually said it doesn't matter I just like to do surgery. I thought he was just kidding and because he was recommended by my doctor I didn't think much of it at the time. Total POS

Dr. Ward was very informative and confident, which put us at a bit more at ease when we first met him at the Morristown E.R. . He is very personable and courteous as well.

Dr. Ward is one of the most talented surgeons at Morristown Hospital. All of the doctors and nurses use him for themselves and their family members. He did my gastric bypass and have done great.

One of the best doctors you can have treat you. Calls after your surgery to make sure you are fine. All of the operating room staff use him as their doctor. He is the only surgeon for my family.

I would recommend Dr.Ward and his office. I have had nothing but positive experiences with him. He performed my lap-band surgery and I've been seeing him for 2 years now.
