I have been under Dr. Nabers care for 19 years. He did a mastectomy and Dr. Telepun did a tram flap (7 hours of surgery) in 1996. No problems since then. I highly recommend both doctors. Dr. Hugh Nabers gets 5 stars from me. He is the best.

I was sent to Dr. Nabers after another doctor discovered that I had a mass on my pancreas. Dr. Nabers quickly ordered more tests and then referred me to a specialist in Birmingham. He was so kind when explaining what could possible be wrong. At my request he said that he would keep me in his prayers. Everything he and his staff did was, kind, efficient, and professional. I pray I am alright but I am thankful I had the pleasure of being the patient of such a fine doctor.

I had been to doctor after doctor with the same symptoms for 10 years. I finally went to Dr. Nabers and he discovered my colon was almost completely closed off. He removed a foot of it during surgery. He cancelled a trip the next day so he would be in town to watch my progress.
