My wife and I have both had surgery with Dr Woodman. We are both very happy and have done well. He and his staff have helped both of us to lose over 100 pounds each. He is very particular about us following up regularly and is always available if we need to see him. We both highly recommend him to anyone looking into bariatric surgery.

Thank you Dr. Woodman. You have saved my life! I am 6 months out from a gastric sleeve and couldn't be happier. I haven't had any problems at all. Dr. Woodman and his staff were awesome. Dr. Woodman was recommended to me by several of his patients and they were right - he is very experienced and knows seemingly everything about these surgeries. His beside manner was great and I really look forward to our visits. I recommend his office to anyone looking into bariatric surgery!

Thank you Dr Woodman and staff. All have been helpful. I had a gastric sleeve 6 months ago and have a new life. I have had no complications or trouble of any kind thanks to Dr Woodman. He has given me a plan and I have stuck to it and it works. In ten years I probably would have been dead without seeking out help and now I am a new man. Thanks again!

Dr. Woodman is just what I needed. He clearly has the most experience of anyone in this part of the country. He is involved in several clinical trials and has thousands of active patients. His waiting room is a great testimonial all by itself. Since my surgery, as gastric sleeve, I have had no problems and no pain - even right after. His instructions were very clear and I am sticking to them. Dr. Woodman and his office staff seem to always be at work and available and I really appreciate that. Another thing that I appreciated was his support of all avaialbe procedures and that it was 'my choice' to make. I am glad that I choose my procedure and my surgery. Thanks Dr Woodman!

So far, my experience with Dr.Woodman has been great and I walked away very impressed with him. He is very friendly and understanding of my needs and his staff is top notch. I have never meet a better group of people in a medical office before. They are very caring and compassionate and understand exactly what you are going through as some of them have had the procedures themselves.

Surgery scheduled for next week. Dr Woodman and his office have really prepared my wife and I for surgery. He put me on a sensible preoperative diet plan and I have made good progress. He has spelled out in detail what I can expect from surgery. He is very thorough in making sure that all of his patients are on the same page and understand that the surgery is just a tool to help them. It is really refreshing to have a doctor be so honest and it relieves us that we can trust what he is telling us. There is not questions that he is a highly skilled surgeon who want all of his patients to succeed and to have realistic expectations. thanks Dr Woodman!

My first impression of Dr Woodman was that he really believes in what he does. He was thoughtful, concerned, and took his time and answered all of my questions. His staff was also helpful and almost seemed to give us too much information! I have a bunch of friends who have had surgery with Dr Woodman and they swear by him - that if you follow his instructions you will lose your weight. He has so many patients but it was nice that he remembered my name and what we spoke about at his seminar. Good luck to everyone!

Dr Woodman and his office has been soo helpful in getting me through the obstacles to having surgery. I had made my mind up after thinking about it for years and now that it's done I am really happy. Like Dr Woodman says on the front end, it takes a lot of work on my end but I am following his instructions and am way ahead of schedule with my weight loss. He definitely is the best surgeon in the midsouth and I recommend him and his office to anyone considering weight loss surgery.

Dr Woodman is reassuring and knowledgeable. He really took his time with me. It was refreshing to have someone speak honestly with me about my weight and the things I need to do to change. He listened to all of my questions and answered all of them. His waiting room was full because of his reputation as being a great surgeon. Good luck to all!

One week until my Lap Band surgery. Dr Woodman and his office have really helped me through this process. Dr Woodman met with me an additional time last week because I had more questions. It was very sweet of him to help me and meet me outside of his regular office time. I have several friends who had surgery with him and they are very happy. Can't wait!
