"Doctor Fernandez, or \"Fuzz\" as he lets people call him, is very friendly. He's not overly corny or in your face, but he has a friendly warmth about him. You can tell he's a bit cocky - he's very young, and looks it, but it wasn't a bad thing. I was supremely impressed with Fuzz. He continued to be friendly, caring, and concerned for the well-being of all of his patients.rnrnAlso, Dr. Fuzz's staff is PHENOMENAL! There is a RN, Coordinator, Nutritionist, and Psychiatrist. It is an extremely well-rounded group of professionals who are so focused on helping their patients pre and post-op. They are there for you before surgery, and every appointment after surgery, 5+ appointments, you see the ENTIRE staff. They are very focused about aftercare - eating, exercising, staying updated with the WLS office, etc.rnrnAlso, the entire staff is very upfront and informative about the risks and concerns with surgery. They work with you to make sure your surgery can go as smoothly as possible - you have an ultrasound of the gallbladder and liver to look at the liver size and if the gallbladder needs to be removed. They worked with me a LOT with a pre-op diet to get my enlarged liver shrunk so that I could have lap surgery, and it was successful!rnrnI'm still early pre-op, but overall, I would give Fernandez a very positive review. It's been a really wonderful experience so far!rn * How did he/she address the risks of surgery?rn * How would you rate him/her overall?rn * Which is better, surgical competence, bedside manner, or are both great?rn"
"BLAH! As soon as I opened the large container, the smell turned me off. I mixed some up, and honestly tried to drink as much of it as possible. But that wasn't much at all - I couldn't stand the strong whey taste."
"YUM! I've only tried the chocolate and the cookies and cream flavors, but I absolutely love the chocolate. The c&c is pretty good, but the chocolate is even better. These have been the best finds pre-op for me!"
