Dr. Brengman performed my vertical sleeve gastrectomy October 10, 2011. Everything has gone perfectly. I would recommend his office to anyone seeking a bariatric surgeon. In fact, my wife had a VSG with Dr. Brengman December of 2013. Her surgery also went off without a hitch. His bedside manner is excellent. His team is attentive and very helpful. I credit his work with enabling me to reach my goal and I've maintained for a year after 240 lbs. Highly recommended.
I think Dr. B is a GREAT Doc. He takes his time with you, listens to you and doesn't rush you at your visits. He explained everything to me and my mother and is very upfront about things you should or shouldn't be doing. I had the(VSG)Sleeve done on 4-23-12 and I'm 2 weeks post-op. I'm doing well and he has me on the right path. I would recommend him to anyone that is thinking about having WLS. However the office has changed their phone system and that really sucks and most time going into his office you have to wait past your apt time but then again who doesn't wait at any other office!
He is a cutie!! He has the most amazing personality! He did my bowel obstruction and does excellent work!!
I first selected Dr. Matthew Brengman simply because of his name. I'm not really sure why. Then after meeting him, I was really glad that I selected him. He is very nice, doesn't mind explaining all of the details. The staff was very knowledgeable and informative. They really know their stuff. I have received so much information on each type of surgery and both it's benefits and disadvantages. Dr. Brengman called me and discussed my options with me. I'm looking forward to the surgery and to working with him and his staff.
We are not off to the best with the staff, but Dr. Brengman was very pleasant and willing to answer my questions. It is still early. let's see how the surgery goes.rnrnSurgery went well, no pain, and I am very pleased. Dr. Bregnman was caring enough to stay late to visit his patiens and back in the next morning to do the same. I was also seen by his PA and a member of his staff called to check on me.
Dr.Brengman is GREAT! He took time to answer all my questions and address all my concerns. He is very personable as well and easy to talk to. My surgery was 9-14-07. Everything went well. I would recommend him highly. He is concerned with his patients and their progress, both before and after surgery. He went over everything with me, including risks and aftercare. I felt very comfortable with my decision to have Lap-Band surgery after our visit. It has been two weeks and I have lost 22 lbs so far!! The only problem I had was trying to speak with his nurse. I was in pain a few days after surgery and had to wait 4 hours for a return call, after I was assured by the receptionist that she would call me right back. Overall my experience has been wonderful! Dr.Brengman is a wonderful surgeon.
In April 2006, after 2 years with my band installed in Mexico, my band eroaded and became infected and had to be removed. Dr Brengman and his associates at Richmond Surgical Group (bariatric clinic) took my case and took great care of me. I HIGHLY recommend them. They were the only ones in my area that had experience with my problem and would take my case. They said in 6 months I could look at re-installing my band. I can't wait.rnUPDATErnI am finally getting a new band. My surgery is set for October 1st 2007. I can't wait. I loved my band before and I am looking forward to this one. Yippy !!!! Of coarse Dr Brengman of Richmond Surgical Group will be doing the surgery. I have complete trust in them.
Dr. Brengman has been very nice. I've only met with him once, but will see him again for my pre-op appointment on Feb.1. The staff was great at my first appointment, and things progressed quickly and smoothly. All of the support groups and classes offered by Richmond Surgical Group and St. Mary's hospital is amazing. I look forward to starting my new life soon!
