"I first met Dr. Gorrin at an informational seminar in July 2006. After the seminar I introduced myself and we had a short pleasant chat. My first impression was that he seemed a genuinely caring person. In September 2006 I had my first actual interview with Dr. Gorrin after I had been accepted as a patient. Dr. Gorrin's smile just eased all my cares and worries away. He answered all my questions with such ease and was so knowledgeable about his work that I felt if I had to place my life in anyone's hands this would be that person. He volunteered so much information that by the time my surgery was scheduled I really felt comfortable in my knowledge and expectations of my life ahead. He candidly explained all of the risks of the procedure I was having and gave me the statistics of the risks that he and his partner Dr.s had experienced. Dr. Gorrin's staff was so wonderfully friendly, helpful and genuinely caring. At every appointment I was always greeted with a cheerful smile and hello. What awesome people. I attended nutritional counseling prior to my surgery. This counseling gave me great insight into what to expect in my dietary needs post-surgery. All in all all the pre-surgery counseling was great and gave me great comfort in knowing I would be in good hands. My surgery went very well. Dr. Gorrin's visits were frequent and always accompanied with a warm smile and greeting. He answered any questions easily. Any concerns I have had post-surgery were always cared for like I was the only patient they had. I have met with Dr. Gorrin's partners and they each seemed just as warm and caring as Dr. Gorrin himself. For anyone seeking this surgery and looking for a competant physician I couldn't recommend Dr. Gorrin any more highly. His competence and bedside manner are awesome. I hope your experience is as wonderful as mine has been.rnThe only negative aspects to my experience has been developing an ulcer early after surgery. This was by no fault of my Dr. Becoming acustomed to this lifestyle has not been easy but knowing what to expect realistically before the surgery has made the transition much more easy."
