"I can not tell you much about Dr Atkinson. Through the seminars and the follow up it was Dr. Soong that I spoke with. Dr. Soong is the lapband side and Dr. Atkinson is the RNY. Dr. Soong was great though. He is always friendly, has a smile on his face and takes the time to answer anything you want to know. The first time I met Dr. Atkinson was 15 minutes before surgery and that was it. He does great work though and very competent(this from other patients)."
