"I was very worried after having suffered a stroke after my last surgery but to awake in recovery to see Dr. Tom overseeing my care made me feel like a celebrity."
"* Well educated and caring.rn* Over time I found out that his caring is not an act, that you are a person of importance to him and his staff. rn* Well informed, caring, compassionate, and real.rn* Nothingrn* That he is the only local Bariatric surgeon who completed a Fellowship and did not receive his training over 1 weekend.rn* Following surgery you will again meet up with the dietitian, and psychologist. They stress that the mind and body need to work together.rn* Yes, they have their staff of dietitians and psychologist at your disposal as well as a monthly support group meeting.rn* Yes, Dr. Sonnanstine and his staff do a thorough job explaining what the risk are as well as how to make this tool work for you benefit.rn*EXCELLENTrn* I feel the whole package is essential. After having 2 near death experiences I decided that not only did I want doctors around me who knew their stuff but cared about my wellbeing and that I was not a number and some money in their pocket. Dr. Sonnanstine is the whole package!"
