DR.Estes preformed major surgery on me in may 2018, my first session he explained my situation according to his examination and prior test and suggested surgery. he assured me he would take care of me and his confidence made me feel relaxed as surgery is scary. I thank God for for guiding Dr Estes my surgery was a success. after returning home i had a few questions which was immediately answered. if you are in need of a good caring and gentle Dr. look no further. thank you DR and may God bless bless you.

I was extremely blessed to have the type of cancer that only required surgery. From my first visit in his office to get the full diagnosis to my post surgery follow up Dr.Estes acknowledged me as a person and showed genuine concern for my well being. His knowledge of how the procedure will go had put my mind at ease and gave me assurance that if something did happen he had the know how and experience to handle it.

Dr. Estes performed ovarian surgery on my daughter, Ashlynn, while he was here in Baton Rouge. He took the time to sit and talk to me about this devastating disease. He explained the good and the bad with so much feeling for us. He was absolutely amazing!! We were so upset when he moved to Birmingham. But I know that was something he had always wanted to do and I wish him all the luck in the world. He deserves it. He is a very special doctor in a hard field to deal with. But he does it with special care for those involved. Thank you Dr. Estes.
