Dr. Jarrard was good at listening to me, and my concern b/c I haven't had a big surgery before. I have only had cataract surgery. Right now, I'm a little nervous, and I mentioned it to him.

I would refer this physician (Dr. Joey Jarrard) to other people at are in need of his specialized area of practice. He really listens and is concerned about the patient issues at hand. Every appointment with him is truly a different experience. Also, he has a positive attitude and very uplifting. He doesn't want to preform any unnecessary surgery (if not needed). He's the best of the best with TMH Bariatric Surgerons. [...] (PA) for Dr. Jarrard, Is the best PA ever in the TMH family. She understands and concerned for each patient.
