Your trust is our top concern.

We strive to keep reviews honest, trustworthy, and fair.

Doctors can not pay for good reviews, nor can they pay to have negative reviews removed.

We monitor all reviews to ensure they comply with our guidelines and don’t include personal information, profanity, libel, defamation, harassment, obscenity or fraud.

Any reviews that are deemed fraudulent or violate our guidelines will be removed immediately.

All reviews are confirmed and audited before publication, and community members have the ability to flag inappropriate content for further review by our team.

This man is a talented and caring soul that helped me 3 weeks after a back surgery. He is knowledgeable, attention to detail and I recommend him highly for General surgery. This surgery was for multiable hernias,. Retired medical Nurse Kim Lawrence

About Me

care philosophy

Society all too often views obesity as a character flaw. Clearly, the medical literature says otherwise. Genetics and Hormones play a major role in an individual's weight and weight loss surgery is the only proven method to overcome those factors.
