I was pleased with the surgeon, but not so pleased with the office and the procedure, how everything went to get the surgery. I think they could do a whole lot better than what they do. That's why I recommended a five. Dr. Jean-Pierre was good, but he really needs to work on his office, his team and his office.

Dr. Jean-Pierre saved my life when he saw my endoscopy and hurried me into the hospital for repair of my ulcerated Roux-en-y with a fistula.

Most people can’t wait to leave the hospital. Deidra and Bow Matthews, however, weren’t quite ready on their discharge day.
Deidra had just delivered Chase, a beautiful girl. Holding that tiny, fragile baby in their arms, both new parents felt nervous about what to do next. But the nursing staff at Wellstar Cobb Hospital surrounded them with unfailing support and helped the Matthews family gain more confidence in holding, feeding and swaddling their new bundle of joy.
