Surgeon Testimonial

Kyle B. Potts
Dr. Potts is WONDERFUL!!! The staff, the office and the whole experience was incredible. I could not have asked for a better team.

I was his FIRST lap rny patient. At first I had many concerns. He addressed them all. He listened and throughly explained everything.

Future patients should know that he is a very competent doctor. He pays attention and he makes you feel ok about asking anything.

I can't say enough about him and his staff.

Describe your behavioral and emotional battle with weight control before learning about bariatric surgery.
I am an emotional eater and happy or sad, I would use it as an excuse to eat. I was abused as a child and I would binge after an "episode". When I was a little girl I would litterally cry myself to sleep and pray to God that he would make something happen to me so that a doctor would cut out my stomach. That was before surgery was an option.
