Surgeon Testimonial

Michael Schweitzer
I am happy to say that Dr. Michael Schweitzer is my surgeon. I first met Dr. Schweitzer on July 2, 2007 at my consult with him. Even before I met him, I had done so much research I knew that I could not be in better hands. I found him to be easy to talk with. What I liked the most about him was the direct eye contact he made as he spoke to me. It gave me a real sense of confidence and that he was truely connecting with me as an individual. My impression of Dr. Schweitzer only got better over time. His office staff were extremely helpful and cooperative. Pat Jordan is outstanding as his NP and Alice as his surgical scheduler always had time for what I needed. In addition, the staff at his Green Spring office location were top notch. I never had to wait. Dr. Schweitzer was extremely concerned that each of his patients understood the risks of all the different types of weight loss surgery. It is important to him and to Pat that you be an informed consumer of this gigantic step you are about to take. To do this, there is an excellent web site associated with Dr. Schweitzer as well as the entire bariatric program at Bayview that gives you a vast amount of pertinent information. Over all I would rate Dr. Schweitzer as outstanding. I would trust him with my life anytime just as I did this time. My outcome speaks for itself. A 2 nite stay for DS Lap with no complications!
