"My surgeon was essentially assigned to me by the Center for Weight Loss Surgery at Methodist Hospital. I didn't meet with several different people or try to "interview" them. I was so immediately comfortable with Dr S's record and qualifications, that I didn't much care if he was a nice guy, or a jerk or anywhere in between. I wanted a competent surgeon, not someone to have coffee with. As a result...I got just that. A competent surgeon, whom I've not so much as spoken to or waved to since I was in the hospital for my surgery. His office has entirely outgrown itself and isn't really as supportive post-operatively as I might like. People on here talk about calling their surgeon, and touching base with their surgeon, etc...and I feel like at best I'd be bothering mine, and at worst, be completely ignored. All structure for aftercare were provided, the patients of this practice are just very much on their own. In saying that though, I must admit that I haven't attended a support group meeting. I decided to start my own instead! :)"
"Dr. Eshowsky is a wonderful, respectful, intelligent, thoughtful doctor who never ever rushes through an appointment or treats anyone with less than entire compassion and respect. His office staff is also fantastically professional and very helpful!"
