"let me see, what can i say about dr. faulkenberry? my first impression of him was very good, i was afaid to approach him, because i was told his wieght limit was440lbs, and i was much heavyer. i knew i had to take a chance and beg if i have to... but i did not! he said to me, we try not to turn any one away.. thank god.....and the dr.and he told me to make a apointment, and i did. as time went on i became very fond of the dr. i had a pretty hard time the first 10 months, but every time i went in he did his best to correct what ever the problem was. and he was allways very good to me, know matter what. he even took the time to have a meeting of sorts, with my self, my husband, my therapist,my dietian, and the home care nurse. and it was not a 10 minute office visit. his staff, i love them all, i saw dana get bigger with her twins, and then there is little sarah, allways with a smile, and last but not least.... my sweet heart of the office has to be JOY!!!!!!!!!!!every time i went in she had uplifting words, made a fuss over how good i was looking, allways happy, and willing to do anything she could to help me, i even tryed to hook her up with my son, but some other lucky guy swept her off her feet, and now she is happy married lady. and now she smiles even more....... new patients should have all of the??????? they need answered ready when they go see him.because he will answer all ??? but i know i would loose focus and forget things. after care is a big deal for the dr, and his staff, they are allways a phone call away. and he saw me every month for year, till he felt i could go longer. he kept a very close eye on me. and of corse he has to give you worst case senario about all the risk that could happen, and it is scarryyyyyy to hear but it's the facts. on a scale from 1-10 1 being very poor, and 10 being very good, i would SINCERLY give him and his staff a 11!!!!!!!!! i think surgical competence is number 1, but a good bed side manner is a must...i would highly recomend dr, faulkenberry. if your loking for a great dr, in austin he's your man!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!"
