Your trust is our top concern.

We strive to keep reviews honest, trustworthy, and fair.

Doctors can not pay for good reviews, nor can they pay to have negative reviews removed.

We monitor all reviews to ensure they comply with our guidelines and don’t include personal information, profanity, libel, defamation, harassment, obscenity or fraud.

Any reviews that are deemed fraudulent or violate our guidelines will be removed immediately.

All reviews are confirmed and audited before publication, and community members have the ability to flag inappropriate content for further review by our team.

Dr. Davis is an extraordinary surgeon. Under his care, I was able to mitigate my diabetic symptoms, along with helping my kidneys. And he repaired a large hernia. I also lost 100 lbs., and went from a size 42 waist to 35. I highly recommend Dr. Garth Davis!

Dr Davis was confident and super knowledgeable about my conditions and what was needed for me. He made me very comfortable with our plan and maniacally followed up with me throughout the process to ensure I was doing well and having no complications. Being in the customer care field for me entire life, I rate all experiences I have with pretty strict measures. Dr. Davis and his team were awesome and I would certainly recommend him to anyone, and already have!

My experience with Dr. Davis and the staff at Mission Weight Management has been excellent! Not only is he courteous and respectful, he truly listens to me, believes me, & legitimizes my concerns. His bed-side manner is exceptional and my surgery experience couldn't have been better. I have never hesitated to call with a concern and I know that he & his staff genuinely care about my well-being. I look forward to working with him & MWM long term to achieve and maintain my health goals.

Dr. Davis is interested in the health of his patients and is easy to talk to. He encourages a healthy lifestyle through diet and exercise. I have had no complications from my surgery, but when I had a question, Dr. Davis was quick to answer and was genuinely interested in my concerns.

Dr. Davis is an experienced surgeon. I have seen many people's horror stories that had the same procedure that I had and I often laugh and say if I didn't have surgical wounds I would've never thought I'd actually had surgery. Dr. Davis listens and cares about your experience as his patient. His staff are excellent as well. I traveled an hour to get surgery from this particular provider when I could've only driven 15 minutes. The drive was worth every minute to see this doctor.

Very caring surgeon who wants what is best for you. Takes time to ensure you understand and are comfortable with what is going on. Upfront and honest. Does not make promises of miraculous weight loss with no effort on your part.
