"Very knowledgeable. Teaches other how to do lap RNY. Succinct; pressured almost.
He takes the time I need. I just need to let him know!
Competent.
Doesn't respond to e-mail very quickly.
You can trust him with your life. He is SO capable. I would recommend him to anyone.
Aftercare is very comprehensive. I wish I was closer to him so I could attend support group there. It is very structured; but a 2 1/2 hour drive from where I live.
Risks: Good informed consent; time to ask questions. Pre-op lecture mandatory. Good prevention (i.e.; pre-op antibiotics, pressure boots, anti-coagulants, physical therapy, extensive labs.)
EXCELLENT.
Surgical competence; but there is nothing WRONG with him bedside manner. Just nothing extra special.
