"My first impression of Dr. Wernsing was "ok he looks like he's a good surgeon". (I know very shallow) As my 1st meeting begin, I realized he really is a good surgeon. He took the time to make sure I knew what I was getting myself into and what the surgery entailed. He explained the risks and benefits of having WLS. He was very detailed about the surgery, he even went as far as drawing on a sheet of paper what he would do. I was confused at first didn't know if I wanted the LAP-Band of the Gastris Bypass and he explained both procedured. His office staff is great, the Dietician a lil strict but great; that's what we all need...right? The office does have aftercare and it appears to be structured and they recommend you have follow-up care until 5 yrs. out. I believe he's competent and confident about his abilty to perform WLS. His bedside manners I guess were good, he's a surgeon so I know they don't spend a lot of time with you once the surgery is done. But he expressed care and concern so I was comfortable. If you're in the Philly area and looking for a great surgeon I would recommend Dr. Wernsing and his team.
The above statement is my personal experiences and opinions!! :)"
