"Dr. Kole is the best!!! When I first saw him, I thought, wow is he tall!! He seems like a quiet fellow. But in all actuality, he's listening trying to learn everything about you and I believe, learning your personality so that he can determine what surgery best suits you. The entire staff couldn't be any nicer!! Everyone, I mean everyone is so friendly and knowledgable. I couldn't recommend a better place to have bariatric surgery. Dr. Kole has the best beside manner that I have come across in a long time. One thing about the dr.'s and staff at St. John Weight Loss Center is they are very much on top of pain management. They refuse to allow you to suffer. When you go in for your post-surgical visits, they treat you just as special when you came in the first time, only now they know who you are!! Dr. Kole explained the risks of the surgery, but he is also very reassuring that you are in more than capable hands. If I could, I'd give Dr. Kole and his entire staff a big 20. Going through a surgical procedure of this magnitude surgical competence is of the utmost importance, but bedside manner is a big help in the healing process. Dr. Kole has it all and then some!!! Don't believe me? Go see for yourself."
"From the intake personnel to all the nurses and dietary staff, everyone was so pleasant and always had a smile when they came into my room. I was quite happy with the entire hospital, even the Pharmacy staff were very pleasant!"
