May 01, 2023
Dr. Mainous did my surgery back in 2018 did a great job his staff are very nice and professional. I would recommend him to my family and friends! He also makes beautiful scars not big ugly fat ones! My scar was beautiful not sure if it's for everyone. He removed my gallbladder part of my stomach and my duodenum and part of my small intestines. I am well with few problems but not because of what he did.
