J. R. Salameh
"I just had my initial consultation with Dr. Salameh. I really liked Dr. Salameh. He spent a lot of time discussing my concerns and answering questions regarding which type of surgery would be the best. We decided on the Gastric Sleeve. They seem to have a good network of dieticians and psychologists they work with. Also, it is only about 10 minutes from my house. "

"I did not like Dr. Inez that much because he seems hurried and I spent more time filling out paperwork than actually meeting with the doctor. When I asked him about the Gastric Sleeve, Dr. Inez told me it was not the right surgery for me because I had too much weight to lose. I found out that he does not perform that type of surgery and felt that he was just trying to steer me in the direction of the type of surgery he does. I also asked him about laparoscopic surgery. He said he doesn’t do it that way because the surgery takes longer to perform (3 hours). He said that he has developed his own non-laparoscopic method that only takes 30 minutes. The way I look at it is, it doesn’t matter how long it takes because I am going to be sedated anyway. Dr. Ines’ non-laparoscopic method requires a longer recovery time (2-3 days of hospital stay) and has a high complication rate. "
