"I liked Dr. Friedman , He was very helpful.I haven't change my mind, He Sent me to you and your website. Very friendly. Professional,If I had any questions, he explained it to us in laymens terms. There wasn't anything about him that I disliked, And very nice looking.He is very thorough with the examination and answering all questions. I like him because he understood exactly what I was suffering and what to do about it. Gave me the names of Professionals that I needed to see, to complete my structured program for gastric bypass surgery. Yes the aftercare program,was very explanatory, and insistant about following. Yes, he did address the risk factors of surgery,I give him a perfect 10 so far.Beside manner is a plus with me, But I diffently will always go for surgical competence. So for me, both is a plus-plus. I 've only seen My doctor once so far. But he left me with motivation. which I keep plugging away at each day.I can't wait to see him again. I have alot more questions to ask him now. Since I get on here everyday and research. The only thing that I didn't like was that my doctor told me my husband couldn't be in the surgery with me. Which I understood. But I am glad that he had all the information ready for me. and where to go on the internet to research. I do wish that I could of had alot more time spent with him. I would like to point out that everyones choice of doctors are there choices. Mine was picked out for me, and I am very glad about that, and now it is my own choice. And this story is mine own thoughts and feelings about my surgeon. I do hope that I will get to spend alittle more time with my doctor> I will proable make him have a headache after all the questions I ask. So Doctor if you are reading this get ready, for my next appointment. "
