I love Dr. Rumsey. He is capable, caring, thoughtful, and a down-right good surgeon. I wasn't even sure he did the surgery until he showed me pictures. And I met several of his patients who had the surgery the same day or soon after who felt exactly the same way. I am excited to continue this journey with him. Thank you Dr. Rumsey!
It's been almost 5 months after my last annual visit w/ Dr. Rumsey. I had gained 30 lbs since the visit prior to this last one, and felt awful, but after seeing Dr. Rumsey I felt even worse. Basically what I was told is that there is nothing more to do and if I'm serious about losing the weight I need to read "The China Study" and go plant based for my diet. This visit was very discouraging, considering the fact, I took two days off from work, drove 14 hours round trip and and all I got was 5 minutes of basically nothing supportive.
My surgeon rocks. He is caring and patient. He worked with me so I could become healthy enough for surgery. When he sees me, I don't feel rushed. He listens and answers all my questions. He is on time with his appointments. He has never run more than 10 minutes late for me. I'm sure he does this with all of his patients.
Dr. Rumsey is the best surgeon I have had the good fortune to have had as my bariatric surgeon. He is patient, kind, knows exactly what to say, and helps to create a feeling of confidence in you. He has an amazing bedside manner, explains everything in a way that you can understand, not in 'doctorese'. I feel so very blessed to have had him as my surgeon and recommend him without any hesitation.
Had surgery 9-27-10, and had very minimal pain. By the time I was released from the hospital day 4, I wasn't on any pain meds. I was a bit sore in my stomach area however, nothing I couldn't handle. I was able to get in and out of bed with no help. Dr. Rumsey is a great surgeon. I would recommend anyone to him considering going through this procedure. He truly has a good hand. With my gall bladder surgery I had extreme pain post op compared to my RNY. Go figure :)
