"Dr. Clements is a fantastic surgeon. The program he put together at Vanderbilt offers a n enormous amount of support and knowledge. His communication and manner are excellent!  Dr. Clements not only listens, but affords me as much time as I need on every visit with him. Everything is explained step by step, and the staff are always in sync. He is truly a class act and I feel privileged to have him as my surgeon."-andywe

"I attended his seminar and was very informative and detailed and he answered all the questions. I called and went for the consult and was impressed, very good, took his time and listened, very detailed. Met with his Dietician on the same day. Still need to finish the weight loss papers for insurance. Heard good things about him."-Kristi S.

"I can't say enough positive things about Dr. Anthone. He has such a great bedside manner and treats everyone with respect. I am very thankful that he is located in my city and I couldn't have asked for better care and results so far. During my surgical consult, Dr. A met with my family as well and he put their minds at ease as well. Even though we were all nervous, as any surgery has risks, we felt that being in Dr. A's hands was the best choice."-RKLC2002

"Dr. Fisher did my LBL/BL (no Aug) 5 1/2 weeks ago and I can already tell that I am extremely happy with my results!! Dr. Fisher listened to all of my concerns (both medical and financial) and took them into account and gave me the exact result I had hoped for! He doesn't promise anything he can't deliver and is up-front with all issues he thinks he might run into based on your individual body-type. While he isn't the "cheapest" PS in town - you get what you pay for.. and when it's something this permanent - I wanted the best!"-Melinda L.
