| I heard about the MISH surgical Hospital through a family friend who had Lap-Band surgery several years back. I had a dotors visit on June 29th of 2007 and was pleasantly pleased with the hospital and it's doctors, and staff. I knew that I wanted Dr. Kaniewski to perform my surgery because she was informative and very knowledgeable. |
| Competitors: |
The MISH is number one. I felt like and individual instead of just another number. |
| Comments: |
Great Staff, excellant doctors. Great follow-up care. I would recommend the MISH. |

| I went to a seminar regarding the surgery and met with surgeon. They explained the surgery would be done at that facility which I thought was extremely convenient. They could accommodate all my needs there in one location. |
| Competitors: |
This hospital is very nice, clean and convenient to get in and out of. The staff is outstanding and very helpful, friendly and knowledgeable. |
| Comments: |
I would completely recommend this facility to anyone who is considering having the surgery. THey took excellent care of me, treated me with the greatest respect, and made me feel like a normal person, not some freak. |

Much more personalized than a larger outpatient hospital and only for overweight people who are not judgemental. The doctors, the nurses were great. Very individualized treatment and care. |

| I went to the seminar that Dr. K. had and after seeing how quickly they work with you as a patient I decided to use her as my surgeon. |
| Competitors: |
I think this hospital is just as well equipped and just as professional as others I have seen. |
| Comments: |
Most of the staff were very professional and did not make me feel like I was less of a person because I had this surgery. The head nurse was actually very excited for me and said she just loves working with the patients because she knows what a great thing this surgery is for them. |

Much cleaner and more quiet. The gowns fit large people. The staff is used to dealing with obese patients. I liked it very much. |

I would have no qualms at all about sending friends or family there for WLS. |
