"The first time I met him was when he did my mom's surgery. I loved him. He was kind, caring, and compassionate. I knew he had to be my surgeon. The first time I met his head nurse I didn't care for her. She was really tough on my mom but now I see why. I like her now. His insurance people know what they are doing and got me approved on my first try. He has stressed to me the big need for a aftercare program and that I'm a patient of his for life. He has explained to me the risks and he has voiced his opinion on which surgery would be best for me and why but told me it would be left up to me. When I went in to see him he treated me with respect and didn't look down on me about my weight which a lot of people do. He has a very strong love for his job and it shows through not only his work but the way he treats his patients."
