Dr. Wood himself is a good doctor, he's pretty positive and encouraging. He does require a lot of testing, I had an ulcer which was found by EGD, in total I had to have three, that's not an insurance requirement. Most of my problems are with my insurance coordinator at his office, I've had to have my testing done twice because she never follows through, she does not return phone calls, etc. Because of this it has taken me two years to get my final approval for surgery and go to scheduling.
Dr. Wood is an awesome doctor. He performed the gastric sleeve surgery on me without any post-op complications. He is very informative and knowlegeable. He is very friendly with his patients and family members. His office staff is very helpful and informative. If I had to recommend a doctor to perform bariatric surgery it definitely would be Dr. Wood. Thank You Dr. Wood for everything...

Dr woods is great surgeon knows his stuff.....But his office lacks big time I advise do not get a lap band get a sleeve or gastic bypass and you will be 100 percent happy with Dr.Woods office. When you have an emergency call please do not expect a phone call back from his medical team. This is twice now they have done this to me.. Glad it is the last ..
My Doctor was sooo wonderful. He was understanding. He makes you feel like you are a personal and not a dollar sign. So down to earth and really cared about how I felt. There was no rush to get up and out the hospital. He and his staff at the hospital made sure i was well informed of what was to come, how and why i feel the way I did and everything.They covered everything, all I's dotted and all T crossed :) I would definately recommend this "family" I call them that because thats how they treated me. Thank you for giving me a new lease on life Dr.Woods, forever grateful, Sara.
My first Impression of Dr Wood was very good. He is very informative and has a great sense of humor making me laugh. He is also very confident in his patients and takes his time going over options with you. For the very first time i felt very secure talking to a surgeon and knowing that i'm putting trust in him.
I was referred to Dr Wood through a friend and i must say everything she raved about is absolutley what i felt my first time meeting with him and his staff.
I was also impressed by Dr. Wood's staff , everyone was very nice and made me feel compfortable. I'm so happy that i've made this decision to improve the quality of my life.
