"My first impression of him is what I think of most surgeons, highly knowledgeable but having a wet-cardboard personality. That changed however once I was through surgery and talked with him post-op. He remembered me specifically and my surgery, he also had others checking in on me secretly (giving him updates) I now think of Dr. Lane as a very considerate and gentle man. His office staff are very kind in person, but aren't sociable on the phone. Amy, his assistant makes up for the Dr.'s lack of social charm. Dr. Lane's program has excellent aftercare: Kinsey the dietician and Tara the nurse are very kind, thorough and extremely patient. With my surgery pre/post I had more dealings with Amy and that was a joy, she's not only confident but very knowledgable and well-versed in bariatric practices. I would rate Wood County Weight Loss Center as a ten (outstanding)! As I said before it is easy to dismiss Dr. Lane at first as another \"meet 'em & cleave 'em\" surgeon, but the team he has assembled works and diminshes whatever failings or shortcomings he may have."
