"Updated 11/29/01...Had the surgery, went through the recovery. Still love Dr K and his staff.His surgical skill is very impressive, and his follow up skill is great too. I didn't have much in the way of complications, but when I did go to the ER at the end of the first week, Dr. K was terrific. He met me at the hospital, and stayed while I got an ultrasound to check for a Pulmonary embolism. I think I was just over reacting to a stitch in my side, but he was very accommodating to me. Dr K and his staff, and the bariatric wing daytime staff were great. The night time bariatric wing nurses were not the best, and the ER staff left a lot to be desired. Overall, I was very happy that I went with Dr. Keshishian and his hospital. I think they literally saved my life.
Updated 8/11/01...I have met Dr. K and his staff, and WOW! They are very nice, caring, efficient people. I can not say enough good things about them. Handled everything very quickly and thoroughly, got insurance approval for me right away, and have been accommodating in trying to keep my friend and I together if possible. I did forget to get them flowers, but have it on my list of things to do when I'm down there for surgery.
I haven't met Dr. K yet, but I am SO impressed with his staff already, I'm going to take flowers in to them when I have my first consult on 7/27. They have answered all of my questions with patience and knowledge and accommodated my best friend and I so we could be seen on the same day because we were coming from so far away. In my opinion, we couldn't be receiving better care so far. If the staff at Dr. K's office reads this, THANK YOU SO MUCH!"
