How likely are you to recommend Dr. Edwards?
I had gastric sleeve in 2015 and converted to bypass in 2018 due to severe reflux. I had an intestinal hernia in 2019. Dr. Edwards did a superb job on all 3 surgeries. My recovery time following all 3 surgeries was minimal and no real pain. He is the best in the business, in my opinion.
