Dr. Thoburn is great. He explains clearly and carefully about the proceedure. He's very friendly and answers any and all questions. He tells you about all the pitfalls you could encounter if you FAIL TO FOLLOW INSTRUCTIONS. His staff is the best! Christine (a wonderful lady) called every day after my surgery for a week, and made me feel really special. Pam the dietitian is also great. She runs the support group that meets monthly, and provides education and support for pre and post-op patients. The post-op care you get with this staff is excellent. They make sure you know what you need to do to be successful and stay healthy and they call and make sure you're doing it! We are all encouraged to come to the support group meetings and the people who I've meet there are so friendly and encouraging, they make we want to come back. And I will! I have absolutely no complaints about my experience. I recommend Dr. Thoburn and his staff with no reservation.

Dr. Thoburn and his staff let me know exactly what to expect after surgery. They have a "little blue book" that explains the procedure in detail. After I returned home from surgery, Christine MacGregor, the office manager, called everyday to check on me. They answered any and all questions without hesitation. My husband and I were very pleased with Dr. Thoburn and the staff at Gainesville Surgical Group.
I had a great first impression of Dr. Thoburn. His office staff was very thorough with the information I needed to know. They are handling all my insurance paperwork, and have answered all my questions. I will have 18 months aftercare (post-op) that includes nutritional counseling as well as a support group. Dr. Thoburn was very upfront, almost to the point of "blunt" about the risks. But I preferred it that way, I know he wasn't holding anything back. He just wanted to make sure I knew all there was to know about the surgery before I made my final decision. I am still waiting for insurance approval and will update as time goes on.
