"Dr. Overcash met me at the door and called me back. That surprised me. I thought his nurse would do that, but he did. It was and continues to be a very nice thing about the office procedures. He weighed me and then we went to a conference room to discuss the surgery. He was very straightforward and to the point. He discusses the risks involved and doesn't sugarcoat the possibility of death from this surgery. He wants you to know right up front this is major surgery. He did not try to talk me into or out of the surgery, he was giving me the facts. Dr. Overcash did not rush through explanations. He asked several times if I understood what he was saying or if what he said made sense to me. He spent almost 2 hours in this process. He takes the time to answer all your questions. He told me that some people don't care for his manner and he can be abrute at times. I loved working with Patrice, she is fantastic. Very friendly. Dr O is a great surgeon and I am glad he did my surgery. I felt confident in his record and know that he did his best for me in the surgery. I have had no complications. -- Update Date of surgery, Dr. O was done in appr. 20 minutes and came to the hospital two times. We talked for a few minutes and but he never checked the incesion site or asked how the pain was. He seemed uncomfortable and couldn't wait to get out of there...but I had no complications at all. I would choose Dr O to do this surgery again. He is a great surgeon. However, aftercare is a different matter. It is almost non-existent and I have had more support here on OH then from him. You need to know upfront that his demeanor is what it is. I have nothing bad to say about his skills as a surgeron! He is fantastic as a surgeon. "
"I had no problems with the staff except for one and after commenting to the nurse, I didn't have this aide again. Monroe staff wants your stay with them to be restful so you can heal quicker and be on your way to better health. This is a great hospital."
"Dr Aziz is very business-like. It took several years and a diagnosis of Diabetes II for me to push the relationship into a better over-all care for myself. We have an outstanding relationship now and he is very supportive of anything I want to do to manage my health. He has asked me to research WLS (my idea to talk about it with him) and let him know what he needs to do to support me."
"There are many flavors in this delicious tasting bar. I have 1/2 a bar around 10 am & the other 1/2 around 3 pm. My favorite is the Chocolate Raspberry. No aftertaste that many bars have."
