Paul Carter

"Dr. Carter has been doing wls since 1977, and I'm confident I chose the right surgeon for me. He also has a way of making you feel really comfortable with him. No question is stupid, and he's willing to take the time to talk to you and adress any concerns. He goes into great detail about what exactly it is that will happen during surgery. After surgery, he is on call 24/7. He will give you his home and cell # if you feel anything is wrong, and will meet you at the hospital ASAP. The downside is that his office is extremely overbooked, and its not uncommon to be seen an hour or more passed your appointment time. My 1st appointment with Dr. Carter was rushed because of this (I waited 4 hours before seeing him and had to get home) and I would have liked to have more time with him.My second appointment was much more thorough and not rushed at all, but I still had to wait an hour. My surgery went well, and I'm so thankful Dr. Carter is my surgeon! His aftercare program has been wonderful. He is very thorough with me, and while I did have one minor complication (a sticture) Dr. Carter was quick to catch it and correct it. I healed very quickly. Dr. Carter has been right there with me every step of the way. I've learned that the waiting time in his office is worth it, because I know he's just making sure every patient gets his full attention and care. I would recommend him to anyone. "
