"My surgeon is Dr. W. Christian Oakley.
Boise, Idaho
Dr. Oakley is a fine and dedicated, competent surgeon and skilled in his field. Not only can he perform the Laparascopic RNY, he also does the open duodenal switch (BPD/DS). This is extremely beneficial to Idahoans as he is currently the only physician in Idaho who performs both procedures.
His staff are courteous and friendly and quite loyal to Dr. Oakley. His secretary told me "Dr. is an excellent surgeon. If I had to have this procedure done, I would make sure he was my surgeon. I trust him with my life."
He has proven himself ready and willing to work with each patient on an individual basis. If insurance doesn't approve one's surgery, he will still work with the patient in setting up a payment plan. Overall, my impression of him is that he is compassionate and genuinely cares for his patients. You will never feel rushed when you are with him. He gives me his undivided attention and is always glad to answer any and all questions. He's wonderful.
