"First impression - extremely good-looking! Confident but not cocky. Focused on me, answered my questions, confirmed my choices. There just wasn't anything there not to like!rnHis office staff are friendly, busy, and effective! They guided me through the extensive insurance approval process, entertaining several calls a week towards the end of that process - and they really do return phone calls. Dr. Boyce has performed over 1400 Lap RNY's with a fantastic success rate. He won't do the surgery unless you agree to participate in their aftercare program - period, and they strongly suggest that we go to as many support groups as possible, before and after surgery. Dr. Boyce addressed the risks of surgery with me, lists them on his website, and strongly urged me to do lots of research on the subject. So far, based on my one face-to-face, he's a 10 of 10, but he has yet to touch me with a scalpel, and that's what separates the men from the boys, you know. In my mind surgical competence always trumps bedside manner - even though both are great. "
