"Dr. Pettine and the staff show respect and concern while making you feel comfortable and secure with them as your caretakers. rnNow that the surgery is over, I can honestly say that I feel I was very blessed to have had Dr. Pettine. The more contact I have with him, the more impressed I am with him. Throughout the process, you are encouraged to call with questions and concerns. There is also a very well planned aftercare program and unlimited support to make this successful for each patient. rnMy impression of his surgical competence is very high and I have to admit he has a great bedside manner which includes truly getting to know the patient and encouraging them. This is a team effort... you are not alone if you are fortunate enough to have Dr. Pettine as your surgeon. "
"Dr. Cavanaugh is probably the most thorough and caring PC I've ever had. He communicates well, and is very helpful if there are questions. He understands that obesity has many causes and is accompanied by a variety of co-morbidities. He will (and has) recommend gastric bypass if its needed. Finally, when I told him about obesityhelp.com he made note of it so he could take a look. He seems to be impressed that is available to patients. "
