"Dr Suh, his entire staff and ALL the nurses at Inland Valley Regional Medical Center, Bariatric center, are fantastic!! Dr Suh is a bit quiet, but friendly and approachable. He thoroughly goes over the process, the after life, etc. His seminar gave my fiance the opportunity to hear the pros and cons about the surgery and I believe Dr Suh is very realistic and passionate about helping people overcome obesity! He constantly talks about the life changes and it will not work if you don't make it work. He also promotes that if you can lose the weight on your own, without surgery, you should as there are always risks to surgery!
His entire staff has the utmost respect for him and I was told over and over again from the hospital staff that he is the best in the industry-many patients that didn't go through him end up coming to him for revisions due to issues from their previous dr.
He requires a seminar, a pre op class and a 2 hour support group (which I thought, OK, just need to get through 2 hours of this and be done). Each of these classes were beyond my expectations! They were so informative, entertaining and helpful to me and my fiance. THe support group ended up being fantastic and I have every intention of going back each month!
I honestly have NOTHING negative to say about any of his staff or my dr! He answered all my questions I had usually before I asked them. He is to the point, which I personally LOVE! I have called the office many times to "bug" them about the status of my surgery and they are always beyond professional and understanding to my excitement! They always ask how I'm doing, if I'm excited and to keep up the pre op program/diet and how I'm doing on that and to call if I need ANYTHING!
The nurses in the hospital were way beyond anything I'd ever expect! I've had 10 other surgeries to date and have dealt with many post op nurses in my life! There's always 1 thats rude, impatient, etc and there were NO NURSES like this at this hospital. They were all very supportive and thankful to ME for my pleasant demeanor, considering there's pain involved in surgery....can you believe they were thankful to ME??? I thanked them OFTEN for being so awesome and quick to respond to any of my needs...to walk down the halls with me numerous times and help me get up to use the restroom!
I HIGHLY recommend Dr Suh to anyone!! I've had 3 other friends that have had surgery with him and we all feel the same. If you follow his diet, pre op, and life changes with exercise and eating properly, you can't fail!! "
