"On May 11, 2011 I had Vertical Sleeve Gastrectomy with Dr. Antanavicius, better known as Dr. G. I cannot put into words how grateful and blessed I feel to have had him as my surgeon. My surgery went perfectly, I had virtually no pain after words and at almost 1 month out I have zero complaints. I attribute all this success to Dr. G and his amazing staff.
I live about 2 hours away from Dr. G's office and his staff made sure that my appointments were arranged for my convience, I truly appreciated that. All the staff from the front desk, to his nurse, to Donna the NP were awesome....I cannot possibly tell you how nice they all are!!! I recall being in the hospital and his PA telling me "No matter where you are we'll get you to us if there is a problem. You are our patient for life." That statement made me feel fantastic :)
Dr. G himself is truly a great guy. He immediately made me feel comfortable, he explains everything very well and has a confidence that makes you feel in "safe hands"! I couldn't have chosen a better surgeon and urge anyone in the Philadelphia area to check out Dr. G and the Institute for Metabolic and Bariatric Surgery.
They also have a fantastic self pay option that makes getting WLS for those of us who's insurance will not cover possible!! Thank you Dr. G!!"
