Atrium Health Bariatric Center

My pre-op care was excellent. I am now 7 weeks post-op, 51lbs lighter and any appointment I've had with Dr. Kuwada has been very informative. He is a kind, respectful and brutally honest man. That is a necessity when you're dealing with a patient's life. I would absolutely recommend Dr. Kuwada.

I am only one week post op, however based on my recovery I feel Dr. Gersin did a fantastic job with my VSG Surgery. I have been a patient of Dr. Gersin since February 2016 and each encounter with him has been pleasant. He is very informative, well educated and patient which are all qualities that have been conducive towards helping me reach each goal during this Weight Loss Journey. I highly recommend his services to anyone considering Bariatric Surgery.

I have been very pleased with Dr Kuwada from the first visit to the procedure and now for the after care.

Dr. Bauman and his entire staff are amazing. It took 2 months to get a consultation appointment after I went to the seminar but I'm glad I waited instead of going with someone else. I met with them yesterday for my initial consultation and I have to admit I was more than a little nervous. But they are so welcoming and put me at ease almost immediately. I felt very comfortable talking with them and beginning this process. They were very patient in answering my questions and making sure I was well informed. Overall they are great and for the first time in a very long time I have hope, all thanks to Dr B and his staff. I will update again after my next visit.

I would not recommend this provider. This week I was making the final appointment required on the list of surgery prerequisites and was notified for the first time there is a $640 required fee paid for Nutritionist services. The office reportedly does not "bill out" for Nutritionist services which is fine. But they do not disclose this fee during the seminar or at any point until you are near the end of pre-surgery testing. When I asked the doctor to disclose all other potential fees which have not been disclosed I got a call from Angie telling me the dr thinks I should find another provider. If you are considering this dr ask lots of questions and get fees in writing so there are no surprises. Outside of that the Seminar is very short only explaining how the surgeries are performed. I've been to better providers its a shame I didn't use them when I had the chance.

Excellent Dr. Can't imagine being a patient anywhere else. No nonsense, straight forward, kick a$$ Doc.

Dr. Roc Bauman is the best. He is genuine and he has excellent bedside manners. He discuss options and allow you to make the choices. He is very through and upfront with you considering his concerns and medical advice. He has an structured program where you visit onsite nutrionist that is always available to answer questions or give you options. His program is setup where you continue receiving services after surgery. Their isn't a specific time frame. I'm 3 years out and still lean on Dr. Bauman and his nutritionist. His surgery competence and bedside manner are graded on a scale of ten plus. I would definitely recommend everyone to see Dr. Bauman for their Bariatric needs. I have nothing bad I could say regarding Dr. Bauman and his staff. He has really changed my life. I am delighted that I chose Dr. Bauman to be apart of my life changing experience. He will always have a friend and patient in me.

I couldn't have asked for a better surgeon. He was so professional and did an amazing job. I had barely any pain after the surgery thanks to him!

Excellent care so far!!!!!!!
