Surgeon Testimonial David Tichansky, M.D. Dr. Tichansky has been great from the very beginning. He's been attentive to all my questions and concerns. He's been very prompt on returning my phone calls. My first impression of him was that he was extremely intellegent and well informed on all aspects of WLS and Multiple Sclerosis (a disease that I also have and have had since 2001). My impression of him has not changed at all about him over time except maybe that he is even a greater doctor than I initially thought. I guess the thing I liked least about him is that he didn't express too much concern when my 1 year labs came back alittle abnormal. One thing I would say that future patients should know about Dr. Tichansky is that if you are not familiar with the Germantown/Memphis area, his office is extremely difficult to find. Dr. Tichansky really emphasizes aftercare to you from the minute you wake up from surgery and you are able to talk to him and understand what he is talking about. He asks how you are feeling and then he starts talking about the next steps. He made me feel very safe and like I was in good hands. During all of my appointments before surgery, we talked about the risks of having WLS surgery. He allowed me to ask any questions that I had and he addressed them. Then he gave me all the information that I had not asked about and even went back and touched on things that we had talked about in previous appointments and conversations. During the process of getting ready to have WLS, I saw Dr. Tichansky and his then partner Dr. Madan. They were both competent but Dr. Tichansky had the better bedside manner and seemed to be more knowledgeable about other diseases. Dr. Madan recently made a move to a clinic in Miami but when I did see him at UT Medical Group, I really enjoyed the time I got to spend with him. Dr. Tichansky has both surgical competence and bedside manner and is great at both. I have many doctors due to my many health problems not associated with my weight and Dr. Tichansky is by far my favorite out of all of them. He's always gone above and beyond to help me and answer all my questions. I have recommended him to several friends and family members that are seeking out WLS. Member Interests
