Vincent Lusco Bariatric Surgeon M.D.

Dr Lusco has never been anything but kind and professional with me. I had Lap Band in November 2013 and I have never been dissatisfied with the care I received from him. The office staff was kind and professional as well. In addition to his office staff, the staff at St Mary's Bariatric Center (Jessica, Terry, Debbie, and Lana) were always kind, courteous and helpful. I would highly recommend them to anyone.

Dr Lusco performed my gall bladder surgery, as well as my Lap Band surgery and I couldn't have asked for a better doctor. The only time he ever was "stern" with me (if you can call it that) was when I was complaining that the band "wasn't working" or that the weight wasn't falling off quick enough. It was what I needed, as it caused me to see that it wasn't the band's fault, but mine. I sucked it up, hunkered down and the weight is coming off.
The only negative that I can find is that I tend to have to wait a bit before I am seen.

Dr. Lusco and staff are completely unprofessional. Terrible demeanor and condescending to patient. Seems to care more about own ego than helping patient. Dr. Lusco, if you read these reviews, you should re-evaluate the way to speak with your patients. We're not something that you just install a 'part' in and command to work well. We are people, with feelings and emotions. Yes you are a surgeon - You're not a god - so stop acting like you can't be replaced. I would not recommend anyone go to this surgeon. He's a real jerk.

My surgeon was wonderful, he answered all by questions. I had to reschedule the pre-op appt because his wife had a baby. He called me at work to tell me my lab results.His staff were all very helpful and seem very pleasant. The St Marys and Elizabeth Hospital has a wonderful program set up for lap bands, Pre-op and Post-op care.

Very nice gentlemen and has a good bedside matter. The office staff is very concerned for the well being of there patients.

Dr. Lusco is an awesome doctor! He really seems to care about me as a patient and he wants me to succeed - not just because it's good for his business, but because it's good for my health. I would highly recommend him.

Dr. Lusco is one of the most caring doctors I've ever met. He's sweet and he's truly concerned about his patients. We I recommend their practice I always recommend him. I've heard things about Dr. Osafka and when I met him at a seminar he seemed very arrogant.

My first impression of him was he knows his stuff. I have my consult with him on May 21, 2007. I will post more after my consult.rnrnI went for my consult today May 21, 2007 and I found Dr. Lusco to be a very nice man. He gave me a chance to ask questions and he was very happy to answer them for me. He gave me info on the risks and the benefits of Lap-Band surgery. Great Doctor. The office staff is wonderful. They are very informative they made me feel very confortable. Aftercare starts two weeks after surgery and it is included for 6 weeks at the hospital where I am having my surgery. He addressed all of my concerns and answered all of my questions. he gets a 10 in my book.

My first impression of him was that he made me feel very comfortable actually all his staff did. He answered all my qyestions and help me with all my insurance needs.

He was very informative, I grew to really respect him. His office staff is very helpful and very friendly. There wasn't anything I didn't like about him. He is a great doctor. He gives very good aftercare to his patients. They have a very structured after care program. He told me all the risk and benefits as did the nursing staff. I would rate him a 10 out of 10. His bedside manner and his surgical competence is great. I had no problems at all with my surgery or my first fill. He came to see me after my surgery and he was just great. I got sick and threw up and he wouldn't let me go home, He is a very caring man to his patients.
