anyone have Dr Papasavas from Hartford Hosp?

Was looking for people who had surgery done by Dr Papasavas
I had surgery with Dr. Tishler from the same group in July 09 - they were all great. I have lost over 160 lbs. in 7 months. good luck. best decision i ever made.
Thanks for replying. Im hoping to get the band? I see alot about other Dr's but nothing on Tishler or Papasavas? I went to the seminar last week it was informative & have first Dr appt next week. Nice to know your doing well after............... "D"
I haven't had my surgery yet, but met with him this week.  He is very knowledgable and answered all of my questions.  One of my friends had surgery done with Dr. Tischler and is very happy with the group.
 Dr Papasavos has an excellent reputation.  I had a great experience!   I was extremely anxious about having surgery. Now I am sorry that I waited so long to do this.  Lost 26 lbs since January 12th. 
I had surgery with him on December 17, 2009.  I have to say that I really like him.  He has a gentle demeanor, and he is clearly very skilled.  My surgery could not have been easier.  I was fully prepared with what was in store for me thanks to him and the staff at Ct Surgical Group.  He and his staff are always helpful and responsive to my concerns and questions - which is not always the case at every medical establishment.

If you have any other specific questions...feel free to ask!

Good luck.

 I totally agree.   CT surgical Group is phenomenal. I was informed all the way through the process.  Excellent care.  
 I had surgery with Dr. Tishler in that group and am really pleased!  Their APRN, Peter, is great also as are the staff and nurses!
Would recommend them and do it again in a heartbeat!!!!
                 
 yes I had surgery with Dr Papasavos on January 12 at Hartford Hospital.  
I am new and was wondering if you ended up having Dr. Papasavas band you. I am going to him and they just submitted my information to my insurance company.
I met him at the information session and I have met with his partner Dr Tishler. Their office staff is PHENOMENAL. My sister in law had her gall bladder removed by Dr Papasavas and her Lap Band done by Dr. Tishler and has been very happy with both of them!
