First I just met him today and all I have heard was wonderful things about this man. He truely is very easy to talk to. He didn't have to go into a lot of detail in explaining the different procedure's to me, and I right off told him I wanted the MicroPouch Bypass. He was really glad to hear it. He did not talk down to me, and he answered most of my questions before I got the chance to ask. I did ask a few and he gave me a direct answer. Nice guy. It's like talking to a "bud" instead of a doc which makes me feel so much better. His assistant Chuckie, well she's awesome. Fun to talk with and easy to talk to as well. So far so good. He did go over info with me and I told him I know the risks and he advised that he thought I would not have any trouble because I'm young and in pretty good general health. He emphasized on aftercare a lot. Vitamins and things like that. I think that any person seeking surgery with this surgeon much know he's "down to earth" and is not going to just bulldoze over everything quickly and use a bunch of mumbo jumbo that no one gets. Cool beans with me.

consult with surgeon scheduled for wednesday 11/6/02. Consult with
Dr Michael Schuhknecht was completed on November 6, 2002. He was very professional and down to earth. He is straight forward and gives an informed and interesting presentation on all aspects of the procedure, pre and post op and lifetime follow up care requirements. His staff is very receptive and friendly, his star helper CHUCKIE, she is very attentive to your needs and reliable, she keeps up with all progress on your file and always returns calls. He stated at our meeting that upon the receipt of my letter of support and psych eval that a Decemeber date is anticipated by the second week. He was refered to me by previous patients, i went to a support group at Bi County Hospital to see him in action. He is truly a people person and a highly reccomended and skilled surgeon. He has a very structured after care program, he has a support group, and upcoming internet service. From what i have been told he has excellent bdisde manners. My experience will be posted when i join you on the otheside of wls. lol
