"Dr. Webber did my surgery in 2008. I had MAJOR complications, none of which were his fault. Just bad luck. I sought him out because he's the best of the best as far as surgery.
BE WARNED: He'll treat you then street you. After care sucks. His dietician is sorely outdated with her information and he doesn't seem to care.
They do have a support group that meets downtown Detroit once a month. Too far for me to drive.
Harper Hospital had the worse staff ever. My care was awful. Nobody knew how to care for a gastric bypass patient and I waited TWO HOURS once for anyone to answer my nurse call to fix my IV.
If you have complications he does call you personally. He promised me he'd visit daily and did even if for a minute. He's busy so ramble the questions off a list when you see him! His understudies do the grunt work and they are amazing students. You can trust them. They've studied under the best.
So if you want the best surgeon, he's your man. But get support for after care elsewhere."
"I was ignored by the inexperienced nursing staff for hours when I'd call. They brought me the wrong foods. One nurse kept walking in on me in the bathroom w/o knocking first. The staff had no idea how to handle bariatric patients. I was tossed in w/ general surgery patients and treated as such. I was left alone in the CT room during a procedure where they were trying to burst a hematoma. I was yelling out for help and everyone had left the room. I was yelling for about 20 minutes. Nobody offered to help me get up, down, walk, bathe. I was on my own."
