Dr. Wood was concerned and informativernFRIENDLY AND PRCISE still waiting for a surgery date. I am very confident with Dr. Wood. I'm going all the way. SURGICAL UPDATE~~~~~~~~~~I HAVE NOT SEEN DR. WOOD SINCE SURGERY. I have been seeing his assistant Dr. Taylor. My appointment w/Dr. Wood is coming up maybe I will see my surgeon lol. I had a succesful surgery without complications.
My first impression of Dr. Wood: He seems kind and highly engaged with his patients. He was informative and conveyed experience in his session with the group and with me. I was comfortable and remained relaxed during the initial consultation. The nursing staff is friendly and accommodating. I cannot say much more because if this experience had not been this way I would not have chosen Dr. Wood.
Dr Micheal Wood gave a friendly and professional first impresssion. He was knowledgeable about the various WLS procedures and took the time to explain the pros and cons of each. His staff at the \"Cori Center\" was friendly and prompt with returning call about any questions I had before and afer the office visit. He is a skillled surgeon and my surgery went smoothly. However the follow up care after sugery through the Cori Center was inadequate. I was basicly left to find my own follow up suppport group. But the scale was still going down-- so I didn't bother. Now 3 years later; I actually place lack of support fom the center as one of the reasons that I have regained some of my weight. Since my surgery the Cori Center has closed.
I was really impressed with Dr. Wood's office staff. I called to inquire about VSG surgery, which started the ball rolling toward approval. It was great to have information about what is required so I could do what I have to do before my first consultation. I will attend a group support session on Wednesday, June 25, 2008.
I read all the previous reviews, and was surprised, I guess. I saw Dr. Webber for a total of, I would say, 30 seconds while I was in prep. Didn't see him after I recovered, didn't see him in my room, and saw the \"residents\" for about a minute on my last day in the hospital. I am not sure what to attribute this to, other than I flew in to Detroit, and had already attended a seminar and had all my tests done before I got there. I was disappointed in that respect, but so far have had no problems with the surgery. Let's hope my follow-ups are more satisfactory.
My first impression of Dr. Wood was warmth and has remained the same..Dr. Wood makes you feel like you are his only patient and what you feel, think, etc. MATTERS. I can't think of one thing I dislike about Dr.Wood. If there is one thing to know about Dr. Wood he has a lot of patients but, each one is special. aftercare is a MUST with Dr. Wood he has a wonderful program specialist to follow in his office. Dr. Wood is 100% !
Great Very caring. Office staff is very nice, had no problems. He is strict about the surgeries he performs. He wants you to be healthy, and in good care. Emphasizes alot about after care and that him and our dietician is there for us when we have any questions. Risks were explained in full upfront and to the point. I would rate Dr. Wood a 10 already. I have not had my surgery yet, but I feel I am in good hands. When you are looking for a Doctor, make sure he is caring, understands what you want out of the surgery, and honest and upfront about everything. Doesn't sugar coat anything.rnrnI had my surgery on March 27th, and have had all good experiences with Dr. Wood. This doctor has the best bed side manner I have ever seen. When I was in the hospital he came in my room pulled the chair by my bed and sat with me for a half hour, to make sure everything was ok. He wanted to know how I was feeling, and asked me alot of questions. I tell you this man is a wonderful individual, and I cannot say enough about him. rnrnToday, I had my post op with Dr. Wood. I have already lost 18lbs and I am only 8 days out. WOW.......I am very happy with him. rnrnWell today is May 9 2008, and I had my 1 month post op. I have lost a total of 50lbs. Lost 10 inches off my waist and 4 inches off my hips. WOW>>>>How great.. Dr. Wood, of course was always kind, and very proud of me. He is a wonderful man.
I first met Dr. Wood in 2006, and I was very impressed with him,my first impression of Dr. Wood was \"wow this man really knows his stuff\". I could not get my surgery at that time (ins. woes) I returned to Dr. Wood Jan. of this year I had to go through the consultation process again and was even more impressed with him then I was the first time. He was serious when need be then he made us laugh when we started to look too serious, you can really tell he loves his job and wants all of his patients to succeed. Dr. Wood has performed over 3,000 bariatric procedures and he is the Director of Bariatric Surgical Services at Harper Hospital so there is no question when it comes to his surgical competence and to top it all of he has a wonderful bedside manner. I am soooo glad I found him!!!
