Holy Cross Hospital (COE)
"There's an entire floor of the hospital that caters to wls patients and they are very well prepared. From very large gowns, wheelchairs, operating tables and beds to the caring staff, my stay was very comfortable. I would highly recommend Holy Cross hospital to anyone who needed to have wls. "

Robert Marema
"I was very impressed with his presentation at the information session. He presented wls objectively, telling of the benefits as well as the risks, not minimizing one for the other. He and his wife and most of his staff have already had the surgery, so they can identify with us and understand why we may call everyday with questions. He has become very popular since I decided that he\'d be my surgeon and his office is suffering as a result. Even though I sometimes feel like I\'m not getting the support from them that I need, I believe Karen K and Cary are very dependable and are on my side. I guess it\'s just that they may be overwhelmed by all the patients they are working for. This is just my opinion based on my own experience, others may have differing experiences and therefore, impressions. UPDATE: 08/07/01 Went to my pre-op visit with Dr Marema today. Wonderful person, very warm and confident about what he\'s doing, which in turn made me feel like I\'m in good hands. Not that I doubted it for a minute, after I\'d done my research and made up my mind that he\'s the one for me. It took me six months from the beginning of the process with him to finally meet him, but I can say it was worth the wait. I wasn\'t with him for long which is something I was expecting, but I\'m satisfied he knows what he\'s about and that\'s what matters. Oh, and after seeing the crowd in the waiting room I can better understand what they must be going through \"behind the scene\". "
