St Paul Surgeons LTD Bariatric Center


The only issue I had with Dr. Rupp is that I was put under about 2 hours prior to my actual surgery. I spent most of the first two days in the hospital sleeping off the anesthesia. I was told that it was a miscommunication. rnThe rest of my experience so far has been good.

Dr. Rupp is no non sense type of guy and calls them as he see's them. He's straight to the point and doesn't beat around the bush. He'll tell you things you might not rather hear but everything he tells you I believe comes from his heart. rnrnHe did both my VBG and revision to the RNY. Rupp's office staff are very good at what they do and are always there to answer any questions.rnrnI had the first procedure at St. Joes and the second at United. rnrn

The Best. He Is And Was Very Straight And Truthful. Seems Like Your Just Not Another Body But Actually Warm And Compassionate With Your Goals And Concerns.His Staff Was And Is Very Helpful And Totally Proffesional With Their Guidance. Would Recommend Them In A Heartbeat. Just Like Family. I Have Nothing But Heart Felt Apprecation For What They Are Helping Me Accomplish In My Living A New Life Style.

My first impression of him was,He was very nice and kind-quiet,very serious about his work and professional.rnHis office staff was very knowledgeable and very professional.Overall I recomnend Dr,Peter Kelly and the staff at St.Paul surgeons specialist ltd.

My first impression of Dr. Rupp was that he was very intelligent and very kind to all of his patients. rnHis office staff was wonderful to me. I had a hard time getting insurance ok, but his staff worked extra hard and got the ok. rnHe really emphasized aftercare. I live out of state now, but I go to monthly meetings in Springfield, MO. They are very important after surgery. You can learn a lot.rnHe addresses the risk of surgery as does any Dr., that it can be risky, but that he has not had any problems.rnI believe he is very competent in his surgical skills as well as his bedside manner. He was very nice to me every time I saw him.

Dr.Rupp is a great surgeon. He is very thourgh when it comes to patient care. I had many medical problems and a sister who had the surgery with many complications and he took the time to do testing before surgery. He said he wanted to be safe then for me to have to go thru addition surgerys. I was frustrated at first because of the time it took but I know it was for the best. I would recommed him highly.

I have not yet personally met with him, but he was the informational meeting speaker. I thought he was very intuned with the problems that being morbidly obese causes. I was impressed with the fact that he has been doing these kinds of surgeries for 25 years and very rarely has had a patient with serious complications. I will update more after meeting one on one with him.
