Edward McLean
"Dr. McLean made a great first impression. He was warm and friendly and genuinely cared about what I had to say. He told exactly how the surgery is performed and answered all of my questions, he even made sure I asked all of them. There is a extremely structured atercare program run by the head RN of the Obesity Center. They expect to see you for along time after the surgery, and hope that you would continue to go to monthly meetings, etc. Surgery date was MAY 31, 2002 and was very successful. He was competent and informed my family of everything in the hospital. Dr. McLean is always concerned with my health since I've had some health concerns, and is truly a great doctor! I would recommend him to anyone."

Morristown Memorial Hospital
"My overall experience was great. I had several nurses that took good care of me. Unfortunately, I did have alot of pain and sometimes felt that the nurses weren't as prompt as they could've been. But they did bathe me and gave me anything I needed. Whenever I was awake, I felt like my parents and b/f were there, so having visitors was never a problem. I was in the same room with another WLS patient, so we took our "first walk" together and it made it alot easier. As far as I know, unless its overcrowded, there is a gastric bypass wing, so most WLS patients are with others who had a similar surgery. I also had an emergency surgery there with the same surgeon 6 months later, and I have to say, Dr. McLean, Dr. Ward and all the nurses at Morristown are wonderful. I live 1 hour away from the hospital, but would go there in a heartbeat. They really took great care of me and were genuinely concerned for my well-being and health. I recommend this hospital and the surgeons to anyone looking to have WLS, even if you have to travel a few hours- it is worth it!"
