Meet Timothy

I love bariatric surgery because I have the opportunity to make such an impact on our patients quality of life and overall health. It's very gratifying to watch people from where they start when I first meet them to them reaching goals they have struggled to achieve for so long. Having recently separated from a career in the US military, my family and I are thrilled to have settled in the Hampton Roads area.
