Dr. George Woodman

Has anyone used Dr. George Woodman in Memphis Tn. He is with MidSouthBariatrics Group. I would like to know your experience if you have been to him.

Dr. Woodman did my surgery just last week. Last Wednesday 3/26, to be exact. He is an excellent surgeon (I did my research before deciding on him), but his bedside manner leaves a little to be desired. All in all, though, I'd rather be in the hands of someone who's qualified rather than personable, so I'd choose him all over again. My surgery went off without a hitch and I've had no other problems as of yet.

Hope this helps!

My surgeon's taken on several of Dr. Woodman's patients that have left him because of his attitude towards them after surgery. Apparently, he expects perfection (or at least, bypass-level weight-loss) from his banded patients, and it isn't unusual for him to drive some of them to tears. He's a great surgeon, but from everything I've heard about him, his aftercare sucks. In fact, one woman I talked to said that her husband came into the examining room with her and nearly got into a fight with Dr. Woodman over the way he was treating her. If you aren't a very sensitive person, he'd probably be fine (after all, he IS a very good surgeon), but just be aware that he tends to have an attitude and isn't very personable.

Thanks for the info. Right now I am looking for the best DR. If we don't like his manner I guess we can always find anotherone after the surgery.

I used Dr. Woodman also and the assesment from laurend is right on the money. My surgery was free though, so you can put up with a lot for that price.

Who is your surgeon?
