    How was your appointment with Dr. Scott?

    Feb 06, 2021
    Dr. Scott performed duodenal switch on me in November 2019. He saved my life. I have gone from 306 to 144. I must say at first, his personality was very dry and to the point. In the year I have known him, he is very friendly and informative. He answers all my questions and is very thorough in his explanations. I would highly recommend this Dr.
