"6/5/01: I met with Dr. Brian Boe today at BTC in Belvidere, IL. I was sitting in the waiting room, and Dr. Boe came walking through, smiled and said Hi.(Neither he or I knew at that time that I was there to see "him"). When I was in the consult room waiting for him, I stepped out to use the restroom, and he said "oh no, she's escaping!" and we both laughed. When he finally came in, I was so releaved this nice man was actually Dr. Boe! He is fairly young, good looking, and has beautiful blue eyes. He did not talk like he was a robot...he was very detailed about the procedure, and answered the MANY questions I had for him. I was very impressed and would highly recommend Dr. Boe for anyone who is looking into Bariatric Surgery. He is a true professional and very knowledgeable. I was so worried about this procedure, and he put my worries to rest.
Dr. Boe has a wonderful bedside manner and I feel very confident having him as my surgeon.
11/26/01: I am almost 15 weeks post-op and down around 50 pounds. I am very happy with my decision to have WLS and to have Dr. Boe as my surgeon. While I was waiting in the pre-op room getting ready for surgery, Dr. Boe came in and seen that I was scared and he helped to ease my mind. My scar is only about 4 inches long, and I didn't have any complications to speak of. Dr. Boe is a very respectable, caring surgeon. I have recommended several friends to Dr. Boe and I know they'll be as happy as I am.
