My Surgeon was very professional. He was up-front and very knowledgeable. The office staff was very organized and friendly.

he kept me waiting for an hour and twenty minutes in an exam room.
he was very thorough with his explanation.
office staff was really nice but not familiar with auxilliary office.
He seemed bored with the information and stated that he has repeated it over and over.
No one has mentioned a structured aftercare to me since I finished my nutrition classes. I need to call the administrator of the OSU program and find out about it. They are not good at telling you what to do next. I have had to push them often to get next step.
These are my personal opinions and I hope that they will improve. I am not really a negative person but I do expect assistance and direction.

My first impression of Dr. Needleman was that he is a very down to earth man and does NOT have the typical doctor mentality or ego. He is very east to talk to and is extremely generous with his time during an appointment. His secretary, Suzy, is a great help! She is very friendly and eager to help in what ever wat she can! I can't think of anything I didn't like about Dr. Needleman or Suzy!! Dr. Needleman does have a structured aftercare program. That is one reason I chose the program at OSU. They require you to commit to several appointments after the surgery! I would rate Dr. Needleman AND the program at Ohio State as your best choice for healthcare, surgery, aftercare AND support before and after surgery! Dr. Needleman does the surgery lap and that is one big plus for a quick recovery! He is a great choice!! I HIGHLY recommend him!! As of this date I really don't have anything negative to say about him.

I enjoyed talking to Dr. Needleman. He made me feel very comfortable and he answered all the questions I had before I left. He took his time with me and I did not feel rushed. I would recommend him to anyone interested in this surgery.

Dr Needleman was very nice and helpful, I didn't think I wuld be able to do anything about my weight because I was diagnosed with colitis and was unable to have the gastric surgery. However Dr. Needleman approved me for the Lap Band.

Dr. Needleman was wonderful and he cares so much for his patients. he was so positive made me fill good about getting the surgery done.
Honestly, It took me a year too see him and go through the whole program, I could not see him until the insurance was approved. So I saw him once, then after the surgery. His Nurse Lynn is really nice, and she is quick with returning your calls.Dr. Needleman is very busy trying too help his overweight patients, so there is not much time for a relationship between you and your doctor. But, when you do get too see him, it was worth the wait. I would suggest Dr. Needleman too all. He explained all the risks and even told me I most likely would not have the scope done, I would have to have the big incision. He express's aftercare alot. I would rate him a 10

Although I met Dr. Needlman through an unrelated surgery, I have contacted his office in hope he will consent to being my surgeon for the WLS. I found him extremely personable during a rough time in the emergency room and subsequent procedure. Hope I'm right about him!

POST-OP------I was SOOOOOOOOOOOOO Right!
Dr. N is the absolute best doc in the WOrld! Very caring adn sincere and a skilled surgeon. I am very blessed to have had him help me. He's definately a # 10!

Dr. Needleman is the best! I would recommend him to anyone. He is straightforward and honest. He explains everything totally. He definitely is one of the best docs I have ever worked with.

I met with my surgeon on July 9, 2002. He is very informative and spent much more time with me than the other surgeon I had met with. The office staff is wonderful, very helpful and nice and they have been through the surgery!

He seemed to be a very nice man, and concerned about all aspects of my life.

His office staff is extremely busy, but had lots of time for me.
