He specializes in weight loss surgery, including Gastric Sleeve Surgery, and general surgery, focusing on restoring the body to a healthier state.

Questions, Answers, and Information Directly from Dr. Charles Procter, Jr.

Sourced directly from Dr. Charles Procter, Jr.'s social posts and replies.

What are the risks associated with silent reflux?
Silent reflux is a serious and potentially fatal condition.
Is the EsoGuard test for silent reflux available to all patients?
Yes, the EsoGuard test, which screens for silent reflux, is available to anyone.
Does Dr. Procter's practice offer patient recognition programs for weight loss milestones?
Yes, Dr. Procter's practice has a '100 pounds lost club' to officially recognize patients who have lost 100 pounds or more.
What is venous reflux and what are common misconceptions about it?
Venous reflux occurs when the one-way valves in the leg veins fail to efficiently move blood upward, leading to a buildup of pressure over time. Dr. Procter notes that many people mistakenly assume visible veins and swelling, often caused by venous reflux, are merely cosmetic, age-related, or something to be tolerated, when they often have an underlying medical cause.
When is the most practical time to address leg issues like venous reflux?
Winter is considered the most practical season to address leg issues seriously, as routines are steadier, compression garments are easier to wear, and there's no need to rush the treatment process.

Industry Payments

Federal law (the Physician Payments Sunshine Act) requires drug and medical-device companies to report anything of value they give to a physician — consulting and speaking fees, research funding, travel, royalties, and even meals. Medicare publishes all of it in a public database called Open Payments. We show it here so you don't have to go looking for it.

Total received (2024)

$1,568

Payments

17

Compared to peers

Moderate

Dr. Charles Procter, Jr. received $1,568 across 17 payments in 2024. That is higher than about 71% of the physicians here who received any industry payment. Most of it was categorised as consulting fee, and the largest single payer was Hologic Sales and Service, LLC.

What this means for your care

  • A disclosed payment is a business relationship, not evidence of wrongdoing, and it says nothing on its own about the quality of your care.
  • Most payments are small. Across the physicians listed on NavMDs, the single most common category is food and beverage at industry-sponsored talks.
  • Larger consulting, speaking or royalty payments mean an ongoing financial relationship with a company whose products your doctor may use or recommend. That is worth knowing about, and it is reasonable to ask about.
  • A fair question to ask: “Do you have a financial relationship with the maker of the implant, filler or device you're recommending — and what alternatives did you consider?”
