Surgeon Testimonial

Paul Enochs, M.D.
Dr. Enochs is very professional. He made me feel comfortable and reassured me that I would be fine. The entire office staff from the first minute I walked in made me feel good. I am very impressed with the way they help patients. I have had all of my labwork, x-rays and appointments with the Dietician and Psychologist. I cannot wait to start my new life. I have heard nothing but wonderful things about Dr. Enochs and his staff. I feel very fortunate to be able to have them help me. I cannot wait to start my new life. I chose gastric bypass because I am an emotional eater and I know this will help me with discipline. Thank you so much Dr. Enochs and your wonderful staff! My surgery was on October 6th and everything went fine. I knew it would because of Dr. Enoch's expertise. He is by far a 12 on a scale of 1-10. I would recommend him to anyone that is in need of changing their life. He is Number 1 in my book. Excellent Rating!

    I know you will make it. I'm here for you...to hold your hand as I walk down the road ahead of you. When I see the bumps in the road, I'll tell you where they are and that way it will be an easier journey for you. And when you get down the road, you can reach back your hand and help the ones coming in behind you and so it goes...and the ripple in the pond becomes a tidal wave of healing water for so many to follow. I wrote this just for you, Yvonne

Hoping to start my new life soon!

I was so impressed with Dr. Enochs as well as his entire office staff.  Everyone seemed to care and they were so compassionate.  They made me feel like they were going to help me.  I could not believe how down to earth tthat he was when I met him.  I went to the seminar and had my appointment.  I have since had my appointments with the Dietician and Lisa Driver, the Psychologist. She was also wonderful.  She knows what it is like because she had it nearly 10 years ago and it is her specialty.  She made me feel good when I left her office yesterday.  I cannot wait to see her again.

I have also had all of my labwork as well as my x-rays and ultrasounds and the upper GI which was my least favorite.  I am glad that they are over with for now.  The staff at Rex Hospital was also wonderful.  I can see why Dr. Enochs works so well with them.  I cannot wait to have surgery because I have always felt like I am a smaller person in a big body.  I am 5'9" and that is the only thing going for me.  I have not felt good about myself for a long time and when I see pictures of myself-it makes me sick because I do everything possible to avoid them.  Please let me know if you have any advice for me or can tell me anything about my journey.  I enjoy reading the blogs and I am learning so much about other people.  May God Bless You All!
