Jaime Ponce Portugal, Md

Best staff and Dr in the SE

I had a lap band installed per Dr Ponce in 2004 and have had no problems at all. I Lost 100 lbs and It changed my changed my life. I will not go to anyone except him for fills . He is the most knowledgeable in this country! Thanks for giving me my life back DR Ponce .GodBless you always!

I love Dr Ponce and his staff. I can say they are as always there for you . Dr Ponce is the best . My surgery was Feb 13th 2020. I have no pain no gas if you listen to them.

I previously had a Lap Band installed by Dr. Tom Ross in Ellijay, Ga. Dr. Ross retired, so I was without a Lap Band doctor. Dr. Ponce was gracious enough to take me as a patient.

Having surgery September 11th 2017 and I cant begin to describe how awesome the entire staff and doctor is.

As far as a surgeon, Dr. Ponce he is awesome. I have had zero issues and my scars are very small. If you need a surgeon that is going to see you for your office visits, he is not your doctor. Jamie, the nurse/nurse practitioner, (not sure of her title), does post op appointments. She does a great job and is able to answer any questions. I had the Sleeve Out Patient and I am so glad that I did the Out Patient option. Recovery, for me, right after the surgery was not that bad.

Superior expertise. Level of confidence really put me at ease. Staff is top notch! From the initial inquiry to my last follow up visit. They even have a special person dedicated to help each patient through the process. When I had questions outside office hours, she was available. Went way above expectations. Best decision I ever made.

Dr. Ponce likes to share his experiences with Los Angeles surgeons and how great he is-and I'm alive, so I guess he knows what he is doing. But, if you are looking for a doctor with a compassionate bedside manner, he isn't your guy. He didn't even speak to my family after my surgery...they were left sitting there for a long time. Lastly, Brook runs that office. Didn't matter what the question was, ask Brook was the answer. Make Brook your friend. Place is like a bariatric production line.
