"Dr. Leon Katz is my bariatric surgeon and I recommend him without reservation to anyone considering bariatric surgery. Dr. Katz is thorough (meticulous) in his practice. He explains everything in detail, does not minimize the difficulties, and inspires confidence and hope.
A few days post op I had a question about a symptom, I called the office, I was put through right to Dr. Katz who clarified my concerns and told me what to do and watch for.
The team of nurses and nutritionist(Pat, Maureen...) who handle pre op and post op details are competent and caring, keeping me and other patients on track, helping with anxiety and frustration as well as encouraging us. They are realistic and pragmatic while offering support and confidence.
Staff stress the importance of aftercare for the whole patient- physical and emotional.
Dr. Katz's practice has deep experience, skill, caring, and availability. I would like to balance this with some comment about what could be improved, but I was and am very happy with the excellent care I receive from them...and I can't think of a way to improve it!"
