"My first impression of Dr. Aranow is that he was very confident in his manner of communication. He was also approachable. I liked and respected him immediately. My first impressions have only changed for the better since having my surgery. Dr. Aranow has to be one of the best surgeons in the country doing this surgery. His staff is friendly if not overwhelmed. I have no complaints about Dr. Aranow, none whatsoever. He absolutely places the responsibility of recovery, aftercare, and ultimate weight loss success on the patient. This is as it should be. His aftercare program is superlative, no questions left unanswered. The risks were explained to me in great detail and reinforced in every conversation we had! He wants to make sure you are doing this for the right reasons (regaining quality of life and health). On a scale of 1-10, I rate Dr. Aranow a solid 10. Surgical competence is, of course, much more important than a person's demeanor, but Dr. Aranow has both in spades. My review of Dr. Aranow is 100 percent positive because this represents my experience with him. I feel I am doing other people a great service by suggesting they research him before they decide on a surgeon on Connecticut. He's that good."
