"Haven't seen him yet as a patient, but used work with him at the hospital. It has taken Dr. Schwartz's office 3 weeks to get the request for pre-authorization to the insurance company. I made numerous calls that were never returned, so I finally insisted on talking to someone each time I called instead of letting them but me in Judy's voicemail or take a message. You have to be persistant or things can get lost in the shuffle of such a busy office. 6/14/01 Saw Dr. Schwartz this afternoon, he is the most thorough surgeon I know. I trust him completely and recommend him to anyone considering RNY which is the only procedure he and his partner do. He is patient and wants to make sure all of your questions are answered and is more than willing to accomodate any patient's special needs."
