"I liked Dr. Inabnet the very first time I met him. By that time I had already spoken to and rejected three other surgeons, so that means something coming from me. I am very picky about where, when, and why I place my trust in a doctor, something that I think most obese patients can understand.
I had already decided I wanted DS surgery, and Dr. Inabnet confirmed that he thought I was a good candidate. He was very patient with me and my questions, giving me straightforward honest answers without being brusque or abrasive about it.
After my initial visit I had a ton of legwork to do in preparation for surgery, and his office staff was extraordinarily helpful. I called frequently to check on paperwork or to ask questions, and I was never left feeling lost or uncertain about what to do next. They even made the effort to follow up with ME when there was still some paperwork missing.
I would never, ever have let a surgeon operate on me if I didn't have complete faith in his surgical competence, but it is still hands-down Dr. Inabnet's bedside manner that makes him awesome in my book. Two days before my surgery I developed diarrhea, and he personally called me at home to ask some questions and make sure everything was OK. He stopped by to talk with me in the prep room before surgery, spent time chatting with (not just briefly updating) my parents and fiancee afterward, checked on me in the hospital, and even called me from home when I was still in the hospital on his day off. It made me feel very safe during my hospital stay to know that even though the care staff kept changing, there was still one doctor ultimately looking out for me.
I would recommend Dr. Inabnet to anyone seeking weight-loss surgery, for his world-class surgical skills, incredible bedside manner, and outstanding office staff."
