"I was interested in weight loss surgery back in 2007 and was referred by my doctor to see Dr Joyce. I had my first appointment where he went over the difference between each surgery. I liked him and he presented it well ...but I just wasnt ready. I knew it during the office visit. So, I didnt continue on and cancelled my next appointment. Well, 2016 came along and was at my heaviest. I always remembered Dr Joyce and went back to him. So, I went to his meeting and he presented it well like he did years back and I knew I was ready this time to go ahead with his program & gastric bypass. I talked to my other doctors & a nurse who had the surgery performed by him and they all spoke very fondly about him. Every doctor I talked to about him stated that I was in good hands. I felt great about him during my office visits! He is caring& goes over bloodwork & you can discuss anything with him. He listens!! He is very gentle! He makes me smile!!! Everytime I call his office the nurse&staff have always been so kind to me! So, on July 17 2017 Dr Joyce performed gastric bypass on me. I had battles big & small but I would never would chose anyone but Dr Joyce to perform such a life changing surgery! He is the best! I really really like him! I appreciate him! I have lost over 88 lbs and feel great about it! I cant even imagine any other doctor to perform this surgery on me.. Only Dr Joyce! He is very important to me.. he changed my life! So, anytime I have a question or a problem I call his office right away and bug them!! They always help me & Dr Joyce responds! Dr Joyce & BMI Surgery are a blessing to me! I would refer anyone & family members to his office even those who live 40 miles away!! I referred a friend who lives 30 miles away(when she is ready). The meetings BMI hold on the last Wednesday of the month are such a treat! Very informative! I cant see myself missing a meeting. Janelle is the coordinator and she is great!! BMI Surgery and Dr Joyce are a blessing! I love them all! That office rocks! Dr Joyce removed my gallbladder on Dec 7 2017 and I just saw him for my post op! I am doing well! So, next time I see him is on Feb 7 & 21 2018 for my 6th month post op visit which consists of Lab work,Nutrition Class(which is a great class!) & then appt with Dr Joyce. I will miss seeing him & the office during this break but if anything causes me a problem they all know I will be calling in! Dr Joyce is so kind & so is his office! !!!"
