"Today was my first visit with Dr. Rashid. When I tell you she is AWESOME, this is an understatement! Dr. Rashid is extremely professional; she took her time and explained everything to me in terms I could I understand. She answered my questions over and over and didn’t mind repeating herself. Dr. Rashid was genuine and you can feel she cared. When I started my appointment I went in with the thought I would have the RNY and after Dr. Rashid answered my questions on the Gastric Sleeve, I am thinking more towards the Sleeve. What I really liked was, when I told Dr. Rashid she would be the one to make the ultimate decision as to which surgery was right for me she quickly let me know she would not be making the decision for me. “WE” together would be making the decision. She made me feel my opinion counted. This really meant a lot to me!
One last note, I would also like to provide some feedback on Dr. Rashid’s office staff. Everyone from the receptionist(s), to the Billing/Insurance Specialist (Jackie), and the nurses/RN has been top notch. I have gone to one other surgeon to start the WLS procedure and I found I couldn’t deal with the staff and decided the surgery was NOT for me. I feel the office staff is just as important as the surgeon. It seems we will be dealing with the staff more often than the actual surgeon. Again, you could feel the staff cared. Thanks for a wonderful experience!!!!
