Surgeon Testimonial

Monte Schwartz, M.D., FACS
My first impression was that Dr. Schwartz was very professional, and detail in his approach. This impression did not change as the process went on. His staff has continued to be very helpful as both my wife and I have had RNY procedures. The staff took a personal approach to our procedures and healing. Also, they were willing to set up multiple follow up appointments and assist in processing short term disability paperwork. They had an excellent surgery preparation seminar and support group meetings are held weekly. Dr. Schwartz helped me feel that this wasn't a \"cookie cutter\" surgery, but addressed the entire process with a personalized approach. His staff is FAB.
