"I really liked Dr. Moore from the first time I met him at a marketing seminar. When I had my first appointment with him my first impression was reinforced. He took a long time with me to review my medical history very thoroughly and make sure I understood the surgery. Since my surgery on 3/24/05 I still have nothing but good to say about him. His office staff is very friendly and helpful. My insurance was approved the same day I saw him for the first appointment so obviously they know what they're doing with pre-authorizations! Their program really emphasizes aftercare, with monthly support group meetings and a registered dietician on staff at Harborview Medical Center to answer any questions you have. You see her before and after surgery. She even gave me a box full of protein supplement samples at my pre-op appointment so I would be sure to have some on hand to try before surgery if I wanted to.
I would highly recommend Dr. Moore and his practice to anyone considering WLS. Their whole program is awesome, and the fact that they primarily do laparoscopic RNY (only rarely do they have to do an open RNY) makes your recovery so much quicker. It's definitely worth the drive to me (about 1.5 hours each way) to go see him, even though there are WLS groups a lot closer to my home."
