"I am so thankful that when I was looking into having bariatric surgery to literally save my life, I happened to see a newspaper ad about Dr. Abbas performing weight loss surgery in Waycross. Although I ended up having my surgery in Jacksonville, the whole process leading to surgery was very smooth & moved quickly. From the initial consult to surgery day, Dr. Abbas helped me feel confident in the decision to have the duodenal switch. He’s a very caring doctor & takes the time to sit down with you at appointments & address all your questions & concerns. The dietitians follow up with you weekly & help steer you in the right direction with your diet. My surgery was almost 4 months ago & I’ve already lost 90 lbs. I’m very grateful to Dr. Abbas for helping to change my life! If you need bariatric surgery, this is the surgeon you need to see!"
