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 Williams performed Robotic Gallbladder Removal on me Nov 22, 2021. I found him, his entire office staff and surgical team to get outstanding. They were all very pleasant, answered and addressed my concerns well, kept my family well-informed during and after surgery. My surgery went very well, with minimal pain and I am on the road to a complete recovery. Please remember that people don’t all like the same doctor; my primary goal was to have a successful surgery and have a competent doctor and staff ! Thank you Dr. Williams .

Please, if anyone has a need for a surgeon do not, I repeat, do not use Macon surgical associates. Especially Dr. Williams. They are very rude and just flat out do not care about your needs. They do not answer any of your messages or calls, let alone any of your questions you may have about your situation. They are by far professional. They make you feel like you are wasting their time and honestly he seems like he hates his job. He is the last person you want to do your surgery.

Good surgeon but he has zero personality. Not very nice. Didn't come talk to the family after the surgery, he basically just left without saying anything. Very poor post operative instructions.

I was recently referred to Dr. WIlliams by my PCP for gallbladder surgery. I found him very personable and professional with excellent bedside manner. Ron P.

Very professional, had a Hernia Repair and I have not had any pain from the surgery, just soreness on incisions.
