I loved the doctor, he was so thorough and took his time discussing all my issues. My husband and I both walked out of the office saying how much we liked him. When I am ready for my surgery, he will definitely be the doctor I will use!

I couldn't have asked for a more Understanding and Caring Doctor than Jeffrey S, Libbey MD . I'm so grateful my long time Orthopaedic Doctor referred him
to me .He was my second consultation the first one at another hospital didn't go so well. I was so frightened being [...] and never admitted to a hospital and never had surgery of any kind. Dr.Libbey made me feel very much at ease, safe and the main thing that he really and truly cares. Again I would recommend Dr.Liddey too my closest loved one. He is one of a kind and I'm so thankful I'm lucky enough to be one of his many patients. Thank You Doctor Libbey.

About Dr. Libbey
Dr. Libbey has pioneered minimally invasive surgery in the Lexington area as the first to perform many surgeries laparoscopically, including nephrectomy, adrenalectomy, pancreatectomy, subtotal and total colectomy, Heller myotomy, gastrectomy, common bile duct exploration and ventral hernia repair. His leading-edge, state-of-the-art techniques have earned him recognition and many awards in the medical community.
Dr. Libbey completed a Minimally Invasive Laparoscopic Surgical Fellowship in June of 1999 at the Mayo Clinic in Jacksonville, Florida. At Mayo, he was Director of the Laparoscopic Laboratory, which involved training residents, fellows and staff members in beginning and advanced laparoscopy. Less than one percent of general surgeons in the nation have this level of training in advanced laparoscopic surgery, establishing Dr. Libbey as an expert in this field.
Dr. Libbey is recognized as the first surgeon in the Midlands to perform single-incision laparoscopic and robotic surgeries for cholecystectomies and right hemi-colectomies.
As prior Chief of Surgery at Lexington Medical Center and author of many peer-reviewed articles, Dr. Libbey is a strong advocate for continuing education and excellence in health care support and services.
He is certified by the American Board of Surgery, is a fellow with the American College of Surgeons, and is a member of the Lexington Medical Association, the Society of American Gastrointestinal Endoscopic Systems, the Society of Laparoendoscopic Surgeons and the South Carolina Medical Association.
