very good, well informed, and very not God like my impression only improved I was in a specific program for this surgery and staff was set up to accomodate this situation At this point I really cann't think of a negative Appears to be very good in his field and very concerned with the patients After care is very important and group meetings are necessary required is back visits 2 wks,4wks,3 months, 6 months,1 yr and every year there after Additionally there are open and closed group meetings Risks were discussed and probably vary with individual risk patient already has Very High rating For something this life changing I think all are needed

not to bad but flustrating I had to go back 5 years for weight records from my doctors I still don't know if I will have problems on the hospital bill They wanted me after my surgery was approved and date set to have my primary care doctor go and get a ok for the hospital bill My primary care doctors office said that was not necessary When I spoke to the insurance person at the end of the other line I was given 3 different ansers at 3 differnt times by 3 different operators Be presistant but do not alinate
