He received additional post-graduate training in bariatric surgery and advanced laparoscopy at the University of California – San Francisco, the University of Chicago, Carolinas Medical Center, the Medical College of Virginia, and Duke University Medical Center. Dr Enochs has presented and has been regularly invited as a guest lecturer to the American College of Surgeons, the American Society of Metabolic and Bariatric Surgery, the Society of American Gastro-Endoscopic Surgeons, Duke University Medical Center, Tulane University Medical Center, and the University of Texas Southwestern – Parkland Hospital.

Dr. Paul Enochs founded Central North Carolina’s first and at the time, only private weight loss surgery center in 2002 in Raleigh, NC. As an innovator, he performed the area’s first gastric bypass, first sleeve gastrectomy, first Lap-Band procedure, and first duodenal switch and SADI procedure. To date, Dr. Enochs has performed more Bariatric procedures in the North Carolina area than any other bariatric surgeon.
Dr. Enochs is the founding partner of Bariatric Specialists of North Carolina. After establishing BSNC, he then started and established programs at Rex Hospital, WakeMed Cary Hospital, and Franklin Regional Medical Center. He has served on the Board of Directors of Rex Surgery Center of Cary, and has served terms as Medical Director of Bariatrics for WakeMed Cary Hospital, Rex Hospital and Franklin Regional Medical Center.

Dr. Enochs is a leading expert nationwide in Single Incision Laparoscopic Surgery (SILS) and Robotic surgery. He is a national spokesperson and proctor for SILS and has travelled the country instructing and training surgeons in this procedure. In addition, using the techniques developed with the SILS Band procedure, his unparalleled experience allows him to now offer this innovative technique to his sleeve gastrectomy patients. Dr. Enochs is also a proctor for the robotic platform and is currently teaching other bariatric surgeons across the country this technique.

Dr. Enochs recently added the Sleeve Gastrectomy with Single Anastamosis Duodenoilial Bypass (SIPS/SADS/SADI-S) to the arsenal of procedures he performs. This procedure is one of the latest advancements in bariatric surgery and provides patients with increased weight loss as well as may resolve type 2 diabetes altogether. Most patients currently undergoing this procedure with Dr. Enochs are participating in a multi-center yearlong research study. In addition to these new Bariatric procedures, Dr. Enochs remains an expert in complex revisional bariatric procedures for patients who find they are in need of a new bariatric procedure due to weight regain, insufficient weight loss, or consequence of the original bariatric procedure.

Dr. Enochs is Board Certified by the American Board of Surgery, a Fellow of the American College of Surgeons, and a Fellow of the American Society of Metabolic and Bariatric Surgery. Dr. Enochs also serves on the ASMBS Foundation Board of Directors and is currently completing his term as President of the ASMBS Foundation.

Dr. Enochs has two beautiful children and is an active member of his church and community. In addition to his commitments locally, Dr. Enochs is heavily involved in funding churches and hospitals in underprivileged areas of India and Jamaica. Outside of the office he enjoys golf, attending sporting events, and traveling with friends and family.
