"Dr. Alperovich is a very efficient doctor and is focused and direct. He answered all questions with respect.rnrnThe program at Wa. Bariatric is very much a lifestyle vs. cut and run. They make sure that you build relationships with the staff nutritionist and the fitness coordinator. rnrnThere are three scheduled follow ups after surgery, 1 week, 3 months, and 6 months. They offer monthly support groups and online assistance. rnrnThey do a strong assessment to make sure that patients will do the aftercare and change their eating. They are clear on the fact that WLS is a tool, not the end all be all.rnrnA lot of information was given in bite sized chunks on a computer, but all of the information was also in written form (for us readers.)rnrnI would say that while he is very pleasant Dr. A is very business like and I had to *WORK* at it to get him to laugh... that may not matter to you, but I always have to try!rnrnHis manner was very comforting to my support people."
