Felmont Eaves
"Dr Eaves was extremely well educated in the niche of plastic surgery after massive weight loss as well as plastic surgery in general. He made sure to take the effort and time to make sure that I as a patient was well educated about what I was getting into by having me attend a brief 1hour long seminar on plastic surgery for my niche. During the the actual consultation he was so very warm, friendly and concerned with making sure I understood all the risks with my various health conditions (asthma, chronic fatigue, fibromyalgia). I had plenty of time and opportunity to ask him and the staff questions both during the consult and after. After my surgery on 11/11/08 he was still just as warm, caring and accessible by phone, email, pager as he'd been before surgery. At each postop visit I'm given a brief opportunity to bring up any questions and they are always answered. I would whole-heartedly recommend Dr Eaves to anyone looking for for a superb plastic surgeon with a great bedside manner. P.s the scar (incison) lines look fabulous! "

Presbyterian Hospital
"I liked being a patient at Presbyterian. I would choose it over the other hospital in our city in a heartbeat."

Michael Melkonian
"I was pleased with th caring way that the staff handled my initial call to make my appt with Dr Melkonian. When I arrived, the receptionist was very pleasent and answered all my questions regarding the paperwork. When I finally met with Dr M he was very professional and thorough in describing the pros and cons of the different types of surgery and explained why he prefers to do only the rny. Dr M also gave some statistics regarding his patients without my even having to ask! He told me that none of his patients have died and that only 2 have had complications following surgery that required additional time in the hospital. Dr. M emphasized that aftercare was very important and he gave me information about the support group set up by Angie, a former patient. The only part of my visit that I wasn't happy with is learning that some patients get a packet before the appt so that they can go ahead and have paperwork ready. However since I lucked out (someone else cancelled)I got my appointment 10 days from the day I called, so I guess they thought I wouldn't have time to get everything together. I would whole heartedly recommend Dr M to anyone seeking RNY."

Jennifer Manly
"I had heard some not nice things about Jennifer so I was a little uncertain about seeing her but it all turned out well. She seemed very knowledgable and caring. She is supposed to have an office in CLT but I saw her at her office in Cornelius at Lake Norman Nutrion LLc. I would definetly suggest her to someone else."

William Sherrill Jr
"Dr Sherrill very patiently explained the sleep test results to me, making sure I understood everything. He even gave me a copy of the results to take home along with extra literature about therapies for sleep apnea. When I brought up WLS he agreed that was an effective option for me. He even indicates "weight loss treatment" as one of the therapeutic options recommended for sleep apnea in the sleep study results."

Vivian Campbell
"I have been seeing Dr Campbell for over 2 years now and have found her to be very supportive of all my efforts to lose weight. I had no hesitation in bringing up wls with her. She even offered to write my ltr of med nec before I could even ask her. She has also dealt with other patients who have gone through wls. 130 Matthews Station St suite 2b Matthews NC 28106 704-814-9711"

Karen Daniels-Mitchell
"Dr Mitchell has been my pcp since 1995. I have followed her through 3 different practice groups. Does that tell you anything about how great I think she is?lol. I recently saw her for my annual pap/physical and told her I had an appt with Dr. M for lap rny. She was very supportive, even told me she has two other patients who have gone through the surgery recently. She was also familiar with Dr Melkonian and recommend the Lake Norman Nutrional Grp for my nutr consult. Dr. Mitchell has always been willing to help me battle with weight. Over the years she has reccomed various diets and prescribed medications such as Meridia and Xenical. She agrees that for me wls is an excellent option for permanent weight loss. They are still accepting new patients."
