Luis Gorospe
"Assisted by Dr. JoeBob Kirk, who is an absolute blast!rnrnDr. Gorospe impressed me at first as being a kind and caring man. I attended one of his informational meetings and he just seemed so nice. He answered every question by the 100-plus people there. Hearing his statistics about numbers of surgeries, including the number of deaths by his patients post-surgery, put me at ease. His office staff are very busy and very professional. Not a lot of chitchat went on, which is fine with me. I was assigned a caseworker (Nycole) who was excellent and she really helped me over the course of seven months to get the surgery approved. The caseworker was sometimes hard to get on the phone, so I emailed her quite frequently. I was visited in the hospital by several of the staff and that was nice. My daughter had bariatric surgery five years ago, so I was quite familiar with the procedure, however, Dr. Gorospe and staff went over every aspect of the surgery and possible risks involved. I was given detailed photos of the procedure and everything was explained to me. A detailed list of do's and don'ts for both pre and post-op was given and the expectation was to follow it to the letter, which I did. This included foods to eat, liquids to drink, suggestions for vitamin and protein supplements. I believe surgical competence is most important. I don't care if the guy is a jerk (which he wasn't) or not, just be the best darn surgeon I can find! I would recommend Dr.'s Gorospe and Kirk to anyone and love them both for helping me with my weight loss."

Southcrest Hospital
"Southcrest was fantastic and I had a fabulous experience there. The nurses were terrific. Dr. Gorospe's staff came to see me several times and I received excellent care. I can't say enough good things about Southcrest Hospital. "
