Munson Medical Center Bariatric Center

Dr. Nizzi is wonderful! Him and his staff are very caring and concerned during the whole process.

Dr. Featherstone seems to be a very serious, careful and thorough physician. My first impresssion is that he truly cares about his patients. He explained in detail the surgery and the serious complications. He appeared to assess me carefully for my motivation for this surgery before agreeing to proceed, it was as though I were being interviewed. He appears very professional but with a kind, caring attitude. I was also impressed with his staff, specifically Mary Kay Williams, his nurse; she is also professional, caring and very thorough. She also handles the insurance coordination which is much like a dance, she is very good. I now have renewed hope that this surgery may actually happen. I hope soon.

If you are thinking about having a Gastric Bypass, I cant encourage you enough to talk to my surgeon and his staff. I have been treated with kindness and respect from the first day I called his office. I met my surgeon for my initial consultation and he was professional and caring. He took as much time with me as I needed. I always feel very important and cared about when I have an appointment. I would have to say he was as excited for me to have this surgery as I was to have it myself. The moments before I went into surgery, he came over to see if I had any last minute concerns, which i really had none. I was so calm and relaxed. I really trusted him completely with my care. I had no worries about my surgery. I knew it would be done perfectly. He has an excellent reputation and every where I went, people spoke highly of him and his abilities. The office has a total approach program. It is not perform the surgery and send you on your way. They really care about how you are doing and want to help in anyway. They want you to be as successful as you do. I would just like to encourage you to speak with Dr Nizzi about this procudure. You will feel as comfortable about this as I was. I am always being teased about how often I am smiling, well he should be teased as well. He always has a warm and welcoming smile when you see him. He has really found his calling in life. I know it may seem unreal that I have no complaints, because no one is perfect, but I am so satisfied with the care I have received, I really have nothing negative to report.... NOTHING!
