" I called Dr Madura's office after my friend Denitha recommended him, I was kind of nervous at first, but I must say that I was very impressed with Dr Madura. He was very kind and compassionate in our first meeting.He appears to have a sincere concern for the obese. He is very well informed and probably an excellent surgeon as well. He went over all the risks in detail. His staff was especially kind and considerate. He did emphasize the importance of working with the dietician immediately following surgery. I would encourage anyone considering this surgeryin the Chicago area to consider meeting Dr Madura he comes HIGHLY RECOMMENDED! Great surgical competence and bedside manner knows how to make you feel very comfortable. I would give Dr Madura a 10. "
