"First met Dr Crookes in January of 2007 at the USC seminars. Knew instantly he was the Doctor for me. a no nonesense approach who demanded his patients know what they want and why they want it. You need to be fully aware of your responibilties and the risk. You can not be in better in hand than Dr Crookes, hes amazing. The hospital staff was great the PACE people make sure you are well informed and USC even has a support group that meets ever month that is run by the RN and dietician from the bariatric dept. His staff(ESPI) even got my insurance to pay for my VSG, which is pretty rare these days. You will be very pleased you chose USC and Dr Crookes, he saved my life "
