"My surgeon - Dr. Frantzides - impressed me from the first visit.
He spent over two hours with me answering all my questions, explaining the different types of surgery, etc. I was sold on him when I left the office. I was scared to do the operation, but I knew this was the doctor I wanted to do it. He was not in network with my insurance. The surgery was expensive, but I have no regrets.
All of my subsequent visits have been the same relaxed, non-rushed visits. He insists that I ask questions and won't leave the office until he is satisfied I have no more.
His staff is wonderful. My wife and I have called numerous times with questions and always gotten quick, detailed answers, interrupting the doctor if necessary.
The doctor visited with me before and after the surgery and his compassion and interest in me impressed my family and I both.
I have had four follow up visits already in the first month to make sure I am well, to review the food plans and to monitor blood work.
I would recommend Dr. Frantzides to any patient who is thinking about weight loss surgery.
I am 4.5 weeks post op and have lost 35lbs already. "
