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.

Even though Dr. Scarborough did not do my lap ban surgery, he has been there to help maintain my band. He is always concerned about my health and the feel of my lap band. I know if I ever have a problem he will be there, with a smile on his face. I recommend him to anyone thinking about weight loss surgery.

April 2017 was when Dr. Terry Scarborough performed my gastric sleeve surgery. It actually took me 4 years to have this procedure done. I was scared at first 4 years ago. But I grew tired of trying to lose weight on my own with diet and exercising. Dr. Scarborough is a very good, cool and calm doctor. His bedside manners are excellent. Everyone at the hospital gives him the highest level of praises for being knowledgeable and having his team being very detailed. I gladly recommend.

Dr. Terry Scarborough performed a revision from Lap band to Gastric Sleeve for me. He is simply an amazingly talented physician; from his manners to his knowledge to the expertise of his office staff. They care for you long before surgery and certainly well after. The team has followed up with health, nutrition and support. Dr. Scarborough and the TLC team are absolutely amazing. I would recommend them to anyone. Thank you TLC for what you do to change our lives!!!

Dr. Scarborough performed my Gastric Sleeve Surgery in Sept. 2016. He was available to answer all my questions regarding the procedure & was extremely helpful in guiding me through the process from Pre-Op diet all the way to my 3 month follow up Appt. I would highly recommend Dr. Scarborough & his staff at TLC to anyone who is seriously considering Bariatric surgery. I've lost over 110 lbs. in 3.5 months. My BP is at healthy level & my Energy has drastically increased over the last 45 days.
