Advanced Bariatric & Surgical Specialists Bariatric Center





Before my surgery I went to other doctors for consults. After talking to Dr. Chang I knew he was the one. He is very understanding and not only does he want to do the surgery to help you. He also follows you through the entire process. He encourages and assists. I recommend him 100%. I don't only see him as my doctor now, but also as a friend.

First, I was suggested to see Dr. Chang because of my obesity. I was referred by my GYN, Dr. Dulak. She gave me a pkg. from Dr. Chang's office and I faxed it in to his office, where this process began. The office staff have been very helpful. My first impression of the Dr. was that he is a serious fella and has no room for error...he takes this lifestyle change seriously. I went thru my insurance's 90 day program and found it to more than helpful, it actually made me realize \"I\" had to change some matters in my current life style. My Dr. is in this dr./patient relationship for the long run. At this date I have not had the surgery. Will follow up later with more details.

i found Dr. Chang thru my personal Dr.,but after my first meeting with him in jan this year and syrgery in apr my life is so much better.I can look down and see my feet,and wrap a regular bath towel all the way around me. It's these little things that you dont'even realize that help make the overall quality of life so much better. Dr Chang walks you thru the surgery and the follow up is great both with him and his staff.I am down right at about 90lbs since jan.09 i now have the energy to work out 3x's a week which is great. My thanks to Dr. Chang and his staff for not only giving me my life back but one where the quality and energy is pricless,i'd of never got here on my own. rn Thank-you thank-you Melissa Paxson-Sparks

I first learned about Dr. Chang from my primary doctor. When I met him I really like him. He was very honest and straight forward with me. He didn't tell me what I wanted to hear, he told me the truth, which I like very much. Not only have I, but I will continue to refer people to him. I believe he is one of the best.

I chose Dr Chang because he is very understanding about my weight and he is very caring. After surgery he is always there for you and that means alot to me. Dr Chang is outstanding and his staff is Great.

Dr. Chang and his staff have helped me have the strength to change my life. Dr. Chang geninuely cares about his patients. He is honest about outcomes and expressing that the surgery is a tool. I have come into his office feeling low at times about my success (It has been one year since my band surgery), but every time I leave, my confidence is renewed and I forge forward again. Life is up hills and downs hills, Dr. Chang knows this and helps you cope emotionally, not only physically after surgery. rnrnThe surgery went just perfectly!! His staff has always been available and very prompt in getting answers. I always feel welcome to call when I have questions. I am so thrilled I made the right decision in choosing Dr. Chang. It is hard enough to make the decision to have the surgery. Knowing you are in knowledge hands and around compassionate people makes the transition to a new you even easier!

I liked dr Chang because he is straight to the point about weight loss and he is just a nice guy. when he did my surgrey i was very happy and I was more happy after I started lossing weight. One thing that I like about him the most is that he is not like most other doctors he is down to earth and make you feel comfortable. He is a great doctor!!

DOCTOR CHANG WAS REFERRED TO ME BY MANY OF HIS PATIENTS. HE HAS BEEN WITH ME EACH STEP OF THE WAY AND HAS MADE ME FEEL GOOD ABOUT MY DECISION. I LOOK FORWARD TO MY UP COMING JOURNEY AND FEEL CONFEDENT THAT I HAVE THE SURGEON THAT IS BEST FOR ME. HE HAS BEEN AVAILABLE TO ME FOR QUESTIONS AND HAS BEEN GREAT ABOUT EXPLANING WHAT I CAN EXPECT AND WHAT WILL BE REQUIRED OF ME TO GET THE BEST RESULTS.

Dr. Chang came highly recommended by a dear friend of mine. She commented about how he has more attention to her as a person and seemed to care more than the other doctors she had interviewed. After meeting Dr. Chang and the very professional staff, I was equally impressed. I had bypass surgery and have been even more impressed with the follow up and week to week attention that this office gives me. I have known many people that have had weight loss surgery and I highly recommend this program and these skilled and caring people.

I first heard of Dr Chang via the internet and I called the office for some information, they were very helpful. Before I knew it I was filling out the application and I was called for an appointment. The staff has been so friendly here and Dr. is very straight forward and extrememly knowledgable. I would recommend anyone considring this procedure (gastric) to see him.
