"I have nothing but exceptional things to say about Dr. Metz and his staff. My first experience with Dr. Metz was in 2011 when I attend a seminar on bariatric surgery at this time I found Dr. Metz to be very informative, willing and able to answer the questions presented and extremely professional and polite. A few months following this seminar I had my first appointment and began the process of qualifying for the Roux-en-Y gastric bypass surgery. Dr. Metz surrounds himself with a staff that is equally knowledgeable and as caring as he is. By September of 2011 I was having my Roux-en-Y gastric bypass surgery everything went exceptionally well. My post surgery appointments were full of encouragement, successes and emotions. I appreciated Dr. Metz’s honesty and straightforward attitude. A year and a half later I was down 80 pounds, looking great but facing emotional stress that comes with life. I had started breaking the rules that I knew could…would put my health in jeopardy and the next thing I knew I found myself meeting with Dr. Metz again but this time it was in an emergency situation. I had a perforated bowel and developed ulcers that required an immediate and complicated surgery. I found myself in the ER…I was scared, disappointed in myself and embarrassed that I had done this to me. Dr. Metz had been contacted by the hospital, arrived early in the morning and greeting me in his usual candour manor. Did he scold me? Yes…did he help me? Yes…He said to me “Let’s fix this together.” In both cases Dr. Metz consulted with me prior, explaining my condition, the procedure he’d be performing, while in the hospital he visited me daily as well as speaking with my spouse/family explaining to them the necessary support required in order for me to be successful. I wouldn't have gone to anyone else... "
