Ronald H. Clements

"Dr. Clements has a great sense of humor. He is compassionate and also "tells it like it is", which I love. He is a small framed guy and obviously has no weight issues, but he has a great understanding for overweight patients. He is an exceptional human being. I also cannot say enough about his nurse, Theresa, she has had surgery, and is a great patient advocate. She is patient with every small question. She is a walking encyclopedia of knowlege, and if Dr. Clements ever lost her as a nurse she would be impossible to replace. I would recommend him to anyone interested in WLS. He requires you to attend 2 support group meeting prior to surgery. The meeting really solidified my decision to have surgery. He is well loved by all of his patients and UAB staff as well. He emphasizes aftercare tremendously and tells you that if you are not prepared to follow the rules not to bother with surgery. He tells you that you cannot drink sweet liquids and eat sweets and be successful. He does not sugarcoat anything. He has earned my trust and respect totally so far and I am very skeptical of physicians since I work with so many of them on a daily basis. So far the only negative thing I can say is that it takes a while to get an appointment, but once you are in the staff is on the ball and things happen quickly. They call back when they say they will and are very caring and polite. "
