Surgeon Testimonial

Robert Cywes, M.D., Ph.D.
Amazing bedside manner, very experienced and compassionate. Spent hours with us initially to relay surgical info himself.rnCan be sarcastic. Sometimes refuses to give out weight loss pins. Upsets me.rnOffice staff was initially rude at times and very slow in relaying information in my opinion, now much improved.rnN/A.rnBe prepared to wait. Dr. Cywes spends a lot of time with each patient which is why I am willing to wait. He will spend the same amount of time with me. Individualized care is very important to Dr. Cywes.rnAftercare in the way of office visits, follow ups and fills is strongly emphasized. Very important to him. However, support group is only once a month.rnVery open about risks.rnRating: Dr. Cywes- *****, Office staff and wait time- ***.rnBoth are great, I would be willing to put up with a bad bedside manner with an amazing surgeon. Would prefer both in one person.

Describe your behavioral and emotional battle with weight control before learning about bariatric surgery.
I felt I was powerless to control my thoughts, fears and ability to monitor what I ate. I medicated myself with food, felt worse, ate more and gained in a viscious cycle.
