My Surgery went great, I had no complications and very little pain, I thank God for working thru Dr Colquitt and the staff at Blount Memorial Hospital for that to make this a wonderful and easy transition. I have a long way to go but with the help of his dietian and the rest of his staff, I have plaenty of help to get me thru.....

I was impressed by Dr Colquitt because he seemed to really know what his stuff. During my hospital stay and all the times that I have seen him he has always been polite and and concerned about how I'm doing. Can't think of anything that I dislike about him at all. The office staff are always friendly and do their best to help with whatever questions that I might have. He emphasizes aftercare a lot. Right now I need to lose at least 20 lbs and he reminds me that the surgery is just a tool to get me started and that I have to work on the weight from there in order not to gain any of the weight back.rnrnIt has been four years since I had the RNY and I still think Dr Colquitt is a great person and great doctor for gastric bypass.rnrnI believe surgical competence is very important, but bedside manner tells alot about a doctor and Dr Colquitt has both.

Meet with Dr Colquitt on March 8, 2007. He seem very professional and caring. His staff were also great. I think he is going to be a GREAT doctor.

Dr. Colquitt was wonderful. I was very much at ease as soon as he came to see me in Pre-Op. I had been a nervous wreck, but he came in and all doubts disappeared. I did not like the hospital beds but otherwise, they were very caring nurses assigned to me. They came in during the night and checked on me to make sure I was comfortable and free of pain.

I thought he was very professional when I meet him.rnMy inpression of him changed only for the good he is a great Doctor.rnHis office staff are all very helpful and when you call with a question they can answer it and reasure you.rnNothing I liked everything about him and his staff.rnThat he is very sincere in what he does.rnYou see him two weeks after surgery and then 6 months, and then a year. and you have lab drawn at 6months, and then at 1 year. you see him when you need a adjustment.rnHe tell you all the risk of any surgery that you have because there are risk for all surgeries.rnFrom a scale from 1-10 I would rate him a 10.rnthey were both great.

I had my first consultation with Dr Colquitt yesterday. He seems to be a very competent, laid back friendly man and I feel very safe in choosing him as my surgeon. Every question I asked him was returned by the right answer. Premier Surgical is a bariatric center of excellence, they do the lap band in the most productive manner. He's not super chatty or anything but I like that. I don't feel like he's trying to sell me anything. The most important and desirable thing about this organization is that they have a plan, they are prepared, supportive before and after surgery and are confident. His staff are very sweet and organized and skilled but not uptight or off putting either. Honestly, the whole thing seems (at this point) to run like a very well oiled machine and I'm stoked that I found such a great gang of professionals to get me started on the road to a new LIFE! So far this outfit is getting a strong B+ from me.

I think I had to have had one of the very best rnsurgeons there is. He is quiet but he neverrnfails to answer any question that I ask. Hernreally knows all about the lapband. I hadrnsurgery on November 8 and have so farrnhad absolutey no problems and even hadrnminimum pain. I would very highly recomendrnhim to anyone.

I met Dr. Colquitt at his seminar in Knoxville TN. He was very informative and personable. He answered all questions I asked him. I will know more after my consult. I am confident in my choice to use him.rnI had my consult with Dr. Colquitt in September. He was very informative and had a great bed side manner! He is the best choice for me and I trust him totally!! I did feel kind of rushed by his staff but maybe that is just the way it happens everywhere?
