George Zorn, III
"I met with Dr. Zorn and his staff. All were highly professional and pleasant to work with. The Pacific Bariatric Group in San Diego has really gone above and beyond the norm in their education of this type of surgery, their expectations of your following their instructions, and listening to your questions; concerns; fears; and taking the time to completely answer them. My contact has been Myla Acuan, who is a sweetheart. She has also been a great source of information and support, as she went through this surgery in August of 1993 (and still looks great!). I have found that a large number of the staff I have spoken with or met are prior patients of the RNY. I live outside of San Diego, and they made accommodations for me to have all my required appointments on the same day. The counselor; and internist appointments went by quickly, and I found myself at PB almost 2 hours early. While the front desk clerk was a bit short/abrupt in her attitude, I ended up being called in by Dr. Zorn 1 hour before my scheduled appointment with him. He made a point of putting me at ease, and his bedside manner is great. Although I came prepared with 3 pages of questions, he primarily answered these before I could ask them. We discussed at length the post-operative schedule of events, and what he expected of me. We also discussed at length the possibilty of Kaiser approving LAP, and his feelings on patients waiting. His attitude throughout the meeting was proffessional, and enjoyable (for being laid out on a slab; naked except for a gown and my socks! I give him an A+ for pre-surgery visits!"
