Wiregrass Surgical Associates Bariatric Center

My Surgeon is one of the nicest doctors I know. I mean, I am like alot of people and I hate going to the doctor for a check up much more so for anything invovling needles. He was kind and caring before the surgery and now 11 months out from my surgery he is still a generally cool guy. He got the job done, and helped me get my life back in order and my weight down. He's a good guy who enjoys what he does, and does it well.

Don't really know yet. Makes a good first impression. Appears competent.

Straightforward, down to earth, no nonsense kind of guy. Did en excellent job. Sorry to hear he is no longer performing surgeries. I don't lavish praise on MD's easily or often, but he's the best. Couldn't have asked for a more competent, compassionate surgeon. rnrnOnly concern was not able to contact him or another MD on the weekend when I developed a rash to latex and needed a script for Atarax as I'm allergic to Benadryl, and hydrocortizone didn't work. Had to suffer with hives til Monday when he was back at work. Also scary rash developed on legs that oncall nurse could not evaluate. Turned out to be scary, but not hurtful

I could not have asked for a better surgeon than Dr. Robbins. He cares so much for his patients. There aren't many surgeons that take the time to care for patients like he does. I feel very fortunate to have him as my surgeon. I would recommend him to any one that is in need of a surgeon. I have also used him recently for gallbladder surgery and was once again very pleased with him.

Dr. Robins is a wonderful surgeon. rnrnI could not wish for a better experience.rnrnHis staff were polite and efficient. rnrnI would recommend him to anyone needing RNY.rnrnHe made all risks clear, and answered my questions. Every one of them.rnrnGiven my limited experience Dr. Robins rates 10 of 10. rnrn

'My first impression of Dr. Robbin was the he was nice and respectful

My first impression of Dr. Robbins was very good. He does seem to come across harsh, but I think he sincerely has his patients' best interest at heart. I look forward to being in his care after surgery. The office staff has been wonderful so far.

I heard alot of good thing about Dr. Robbins. I am very confident in his work and would recommend him to anyone. Even though I didn't go through with it 2 years ago I feel that he has a lot more surgeries behind him and he had a whole differnt approach since my last visit in 2003.

Dr. Robbins was very nice and caring. He seems to know what he is talking about. Office staff was nice. I was all ready to have the surgery but found out that my insurance instists on a 6 mo. supervised diet before you can apply to have surgery. That is not Dr. Robbins fault. I am now on my 2nd mo. of my supervised diet. Then I will see Dr. Robbins again. Will update more later.

my 1st impression was that he is a very compassionate man. he is not stoic or reserved, he is very personable, approachable. he made sure i understood all the aspects of the surgery & answered any & all questions me or my husband had. i feel very confident in my choice of surgeons!
eric was very informative & very down to earth. he encourages you to ask questions & answers everthing with knowledge & confidence. i was very impressed with eric. amy was also very helpful. she is a very pleasant young lady. she made sure all additional appointments were made befroe i left & that i had them all written down. she called to confirm 1 appt. after there was aquestion about it. she went above & beyond to make this a smooth process!!!
at this point, there is nothing that i do not like about dr. fendley & his staff!
future patients should know that they need to do their own research about surgeons, not just listen to what everone else says. they should know that dr. fendley cares about his patients, i did not just see $ signs in his eyes!
dr. fendley made sure i realized this is not a quick fix, the surgery is only as good as my commitment to changing my lifestyle!
he & eric both addressed the risks of surgery. nothing was downplayed, they both made sure that my husband & i understood the seriousness of the surgery.
i rate dr. fendley & his staff highly. i have had numerous surgeries & have had good & bad surgeons. i felt an instant connection with these people. i felt the really cared. i rate them 100%! i realize 100% is suspect but at this time, i truly have no complaints or reservations!
i feel bedside manner & surgical competence are equal. this is an emotional journey as well as physical. bedside manner will play a major role in the journey, as well as competence!
