" 10/16/01 was my first consult with Dr. Curci. He was very nice and relaxed with talking to me. I never once felt I had to justify myself or reasons to him.
The staff was nice. I spoke with Carol who was the one who got my date all set up and my paperwork done. She was very sweet and relaxed all my pre-hospital questions.
I think you can relax yourself now before going for first appointment, since he doesnt make you feel like you have to justify anything. Good to know for others who have yet to have their first consult :)
He told me of support group and aftercare programs with my PCP as well as a follow up with him and the importance of it all.
He told me of good things and bad things that can happen as a result of this surgery, which being through 4 surgeries in the past, I know them :)
I think all in all, as my first consult, he was very good. Bedside manner, surgical competence, information, just very good. I am happy with my choice of surgeon :)
As of 5/28/04, I was informed that Dr. Curci will no longer be accepting new patients for WLS. No reason was passed along to me from Carol in his office who was the one who called to inform me per his request. There was no known info if he will resume at a later time or not."
"Ginny has grown alot in this field of knowledge. I am very happy to see a person with such committment to the patients and such a drive to learn more and more about us. She is very caring and she exceeds the expection."
