"From the first time I met Dr. Romanelli, at a support group meeting, at Jersey Shore Medical Center, I was very impressed with him. In the months prior to my surgery, my respect and admiration for him continued to get stronger.
His office staff is wonderful. Everyone is helpful, considerate, and efficient. There is absolutely NOTHING regarding Dr. Romanelli, or his staff that I didn't/don't like.
Anyone that selects Dr. Romanelli as their surgeon should know that they are in very good hands, and have selected a surgeon who is at the top of his game. His care and concern for his patients is beyond reproach.
Dr. Romanelli's aftercare program is terrific. It is well structured and you only move from one step to the next when you are ready, both physically and emotionally. The aftercare program includes meeting with the nutritionist at every post op visit.
The risks of surgery are discussed at length in every support group meeting. Attendance at support group meetings pre op mandatory.
Overall, I would rate Dr. Romanelli, and his bariatric program, as top notch! I am so grateful to have had him perform my surgery. I have so much faith and confidence in him that I went into surgery not being one bit nervous because I knew I was in good hands.
I would say that I'd rather have a competent surgeon, but I also believe that a good beside manner is also important. Dr. Romanelli has both. He is the BEST!!!
