I am 5 yrs. post op, and thriving. At 69 yrs. I am grateful every moment of every day that Dr. Gluck is the doctor I chose for my surgery & follow up program (yearly blood tests, physical, consultation) and early education program, pre-surgery & post op. There is a core of loving care that surrounds Dr. Gluck--- a deep respect & well-wishing that brings the deepest core level chance of addressing one's (in my case, life-long) obesity issue, so that, as well as his desire for weight loss, his primary concern is that a vibrantly healthy, vitally enjoyable life unfolds, as you normalize your weight. In other words, his concern for one's flourishing completely transcends whether or not we lose weight---his heart's desire is that we discover our actual health-based life story & begin to LIVE it. I LOVE Dr. Gluck & thank God for his forever LIFE gift of opening the door to wholehearted wellness for me.

I love Dr. Gluck!!! He has an intense program both before and after surgery to ensure your success. He has a great personality an awesome sense of humor. While I was in the hospital he actually listened to how I was feeling instead of just looking at my test results and pronouncing me good to go home. I would recommend him to anyone and everyone.

If you are truly serious about changing your life then he is the guy to see. He has a very intensive post op plan that you need to follow. This is because he knows that even when your 6 months out you still may need help. There are so many appoinments for different things. Some are to see him, some for his PA, some for the nutritionist, or a counsellor. They are all to make sure you know that you aren't alone in this and that if you are having any problems at all you just need to speak up. If you are doing great and not having problems they will help celebrate your success.

I feel blessed that I chose Dr. Gluck and Life Without Limits. His whole office staff are wonderful and they always make you feel welcome. You are not just patient number whatever for the day. Whether you are the first or last patient you are greeted with a smile and the time that you need is taken to make sure all your questions are answered.

I am totally impressed with Dr. Gluck and his staff. I had RNY surgery 2 years ago. He truly cares about his patients through the surgery process and beyond. They are respectful and really care about their patients for the long haul. His nutritionist, Erica, is AWESOME! She was meant to do the job she does. She gets across what she teaches you in the perfect way. Leticia is great at leading her support groups and providing valuable information and speakers. I would highly recommend Dr. Gluck if you are considering weight loss surgery. I will be forever grateful for the "2nd chance" he's given me through WLS.

Dr. Gluck and his entire team are the best out there! I have gone to many seminars offered by other surgeons and after going to just one seminar given by Dr. Gluck and his team I knew I was going to have him do my surgery. He is always there for any questions or concerns I have at ANY time! Even calling me at home several times to just ask how I was doing. I can not say enough just what a great Dr. and man he is!

I LOVED Dr. Gluck!! He did amazing work and answered any and all questions I had. He also explained everything very well and calmed all of my fears. His staff/ team also helped each patient through each phase and stepping stone we came to. I would definitely recomend him and his office to anyone considering gastric bypass!

I have as of yet not been ok'd for the vertical sleeve, but I am so impressed with Dr.Gluck's team approach to having this surgery. They all have made me feel this is not an impossible task. They have responded to every email I have sent within the same day or the next day.

My first impression of Dr. Gluck, was wow, he is a little man, did he have bariatric surgery and that is why he is in to it? I found out that he was not always a little man and he grew up with obesity problems and that is why he came to care about people who lost control of their health. Matuirty did take care of his childhood obesity. I learned he is a kind and softly humorous man. He is truly committed to his program and as strict as his program is, he lets you go a little on your own to find out your own limits after surgery. His office staff were very helpful. I can't say there has been anything about him that I have not liked, so far. Before surgery he told me I had to lose atleast 15 lbs, but if I didn't, not to worry myself about it because we would work around whatever I could lose. I didn't lose 15 lbs, but did lose some. He was happy. My surgery went well and my aftercare so far has been excellent. He does call his patients or accepts calls from them at his home. I have talked to him twice already and he has calmed my fears. it doesn't seem to matter what your problems might be, he is just there to truly help you through it all. He might not be perfect, but if you listen and read to what is being said about him and his program you will know he has the #1 bariatric program in the US. I think this makes him a great Humanitarian. He recently celebrated his 2000 surgery and he was very proud of his accomplishment. He is very honest in his seminar and tells you he has only ever lost 1 patient. 1 in 2000, wow, need anymore be said? He has both, the surgical competence than everyone should expect from their surgeon and he has a beautiful bedside manner, bot of which are very important to patients looking to have the surgery done.

I am 2 weeks post-op. I am still having some trouble. I have a wound infection that the Dr. is working on. It doesn't hurt thst much but it is starting to get me down.
My Dr. was wonderful. He really cares about his patients. He called me the day after my surgery. He said to call him any time I had any questions.
At least I'm getting better :)
