Patients Testimonials

Dr. Woodworth was recommended to me by my primary care provider in COS because of my hiatal hernia, GERD symptoms and chronic cough. Another patient in the practice I go to had good results from the LINX procedure so I wanted to find out more about that. Dr. Woodworth explained both the LINX procedure and the partial fundiplication procedure at the initial appointment. He took the time to answer all of my questions. I never felt rushed. Because of his staff’s foresight I was able to get one of three tests done in the office that day. I went back to Sky Ridge campus for two other tests and then for a follow up appointment. In the follow-up appointment, I felt Dr. Woodworth listened to my concerns and my hopes for the surgery. We ultimately decided on hiatal hernia repair and the LINX procedure. I was given pre-op directions and specific 5-day pre-op diet instructions. I was also given post-op directions and diet so I would know what to expect and have food and equipment on hand for after the surgery. My surgery was on Tuesday so I am 3 days post-op. I have had minimal pain and I am already noticing an improvement in my gastric reflux symptoms and chronic cough. I found Dr. Woodworth to be thorough, knowledgeable and skilled. He made me feel confident in my decision on the type of surgery to have and in him as my surgeon.

Dr.Woodworth is very understanding and takes the time needed to explain the recommended procedure and why it is needed. Also wants to make sure you know why and why it’s important to understand post operative issues and to stay in touch with the office. Calming, knowledgeable and his experience means a lot

This was my first consult with Dr. Woodworth. He’s very thorough and explained the procedures well. He’s confident but not cocky. I like this trade in a surgeon.

My surgery experience with Dr. Woodworth was excellent. From the initial consult to the pre-surgery preparation and post surgery exit. All went well.

Dr. Woodworth is a wonderful doctor! Very courteous and explains everything in detail. His knowledge on Hiatal hernia and the esophagus is beyond any other doctor that I have been to. My only complaint is not with him but how long a wait there is prior to surgery. We sat in the waiting area for an 1 1/2 before they came to get me to prep me for surgery. I think there is room for improvement in that area.
