"I chose Wolfe, then found he's not doing any lap procedures, so I had the option of Deveney or O'Rourke - I chose Deveney for scheduling reasons, I feel either he or Dr. O'Rourke are equally qualified, so it was a matter of convenience.rnrnNot happy about Wolfe being publicized and touted as \"the\" guy around OHSU, then to find a week after my date with him is scheduled, that he won't be doing my procedure. I don't like being a victim of workplace politics . . . "
"Dr. Purnell - is very thorough and extremely knowledgeable. He is a clinical researcher and is very educated on obesity research and advance. He offered me MANY courses of therapy and treatment because initially I was very resistant to the idea of obesity surgery. He never pushed surgery, but always suggested it as a good option for my situation. Spend two very long visits answering questions for my husband and I once we decided to move forward to pursuing surgery. An excellent practitioner and extremely compassionate - I would recommend him to anyone with no reservation. Only negatives are clinic related - long wait times, limited clinic days, sometimes there is a waiting list for new patients - he's still worth it if you can tolerate the front office hassles."
"Azita is a WONderful practitioner - very comprehensive, explained things in detail - made several follow-up calls to me, advocated with my bariatric team - an excellent experience all around - CPAP sucks, but the service was terrific"
