"Dr. Crews is VERY knowledgable and he's never in a hurry. His patients are his main concern. I found him to be not only a professional, but he is sensitive to the needs, emotions, and trauma the bariatric patient goes through/or has gone through. He offers various books to read to provoke your thinking and with some of the textbooks (I call them my "homework"), comes a workbook. A previous professional , I feel was only interested in getting my insurance money~he hardly ever called. Dr. Crews calls me when he can or stays in touch with the office RN who gives him an update concerning me. I am so happy to have found a Bariatric Psychiatrist. "
"I was originally scheduled to have my WLS with Dr. J.K. Champion, who I finally had the opportunity to meet for the first time on November 30, 2001. I was told that Dr. Champion is the SURGEON of ALL SURGEONS-the BEST NATIONWIDE, for the RNY-both LAP & Open, and the VBG. I must say that I was quite impresssed when I was informed by the office staff that Dr. Champion had taken on a new partner, Dr. Mike Williams. First impressions are lasting ones. Dr. Williams was a perfect gentleman, reserved, professional, competent and quite thorough. I had no problem knowing that he would be the one to do the Roux-en-Y by Lap (my WLS). I was HIS VERY FIRST PATIENT~so I feel special as well as honored to have this gentleman to take care of me. I was MOST impressed with his putting my mind at ease, and answering the few questions I had left. Dr. Champion had previously answered my list of 6 pages. Dr. Williams also took his time and further explained the procedure and the risks involved. Dr. Williams's credentials and publications speak for themselves. He is SKILLED and KNOWS what he is doing. The office staff office staff is ABSOLUTELY FABULOUS!! He treated me with honesty and concern for my total health. Videoscopic Institute of Atlanta (the office of Dr. Champion & Dr. Williams) has Pre-and Post Op Support Groups as well as an exercise class. Aftercare is emphasized-you have to sign a contract. Both physicians are strict about their expectations. If you follow their instructions to the letter, you can't go wrong and you'll have much success. I know that it's been said that no one can get a review of 100% - some folks may even become skeptical of such an individual. Overall, on a scale of 1-10, he's OFF THE SCALE in my estimation! His surgical competence is above excellence. Thank you, Dr. Williams for helping me to live a longer, healthier, happier and more energetic life!!Thank you Dr. Champion for introducing me to Dr. Williams. I'm SO EXCITED!!"
"I chose Dr. Fowler to be my Primary Care Physician since relocating to Atlanta, GA from Indianapolis in 1986. He is a great listener and honest. He's comitted to his patients and has, in my opinion, become a true "friend of the family". I trust his judgement and opinions. My only negative comment is that his office is EXTREMELY busy and oftentimes seems to "overbook" his patients. This means he is limited as far as the quality time he has available to spend with his patients. I am persistent when I have visits with him, and not satified until/unless my questions are answered or concerns addressed...he ALWAYS tells me the truth about any medical condition."
