About

Dr. Reed completed his undergraduate and medical school training at the University of North Carolina at Chapel Hill. His passion for bariatric surgery began prior to medical school when he spent two years as a bariatric surgery research coordinator at East Carolina University. While there, he witnessed the life-changing results of bariatric surgery as it applied not only to weight loss, but to our patients’ overall quality of life. He then completed his General Surgery residency and a fellowship in Bariatric and Advanced Minimally Invasive Surgery at Virginia Tech Carilion School of Medicine in Roanoke, VA.
