Daniel Lane Bariatric Surgeon M.D.

Dr. Lane is wonderful. He came to check on me (and his other patients) each day, in the hospital, even when he wasn't on call and when he was scheduled off. He really listens to you and is never in a hurry. A five star rating for Dr. Lane.

Dr. Lane was very informative. He looks young but that shouldn't have anything to do with his surgical ability. He first talked about the pros and cons and things that could happen. Was very upfront about all the risks. He was not in a hurry or rushed me in anyway. It started by him talking about the procedure, pros and cons, all the risks. Then I asked him questions and he answered all of them. I got nervous and forgot a few things. He made me feel comfortable in asking anything. He is very open and cares about the patient. I feel comfortable with my decision to use Dr. Lane as my surgeon. His staff is nice and friendly. I agree with a response about Dr. Lane, he doesn't smile and does have a tired look.

I LOVE DR. LANE TO DEATH. HE IS SO PERSONABLE AND CARING. HE TAKES UP ALOT OF TIME WHEN HE EXPLAINS THIS SURGERY. AND THE HOSPITAL IS GREAT, EVERYONE IS VERY FRIENDLY.I THINK ANYONE IN THIS AREA SHOULD CONSIDER HIM AS HIS/HER DOCTOR.HE GIVES HIS PATIENTS VERY IMPORTANT PAPERS TO READ ONCE THEY ARE AT HOME. HE STRESSES FAMILY INVOLVEMENT.

MY first impression of Dr Lane was, well alittle on the shakey side. But I am glad I did not base my opinion on looks. He was the most plesant, soft spoken, and caring Dr. I walked away feeling so good. I feel I am in excellent hands. He was the 3rd Dr I had seen for this particular procedure. I feel I have made the best choice.
The staff was not very good. They were very rude, acting like I was bothering them, and even after my second visit, my opinion of them has not changed.
Dr. Lane was very candid about the risk. He did not sugar coat anything, he layed it all out in black and white. I rate him a 10 so far, and don't see my opinion changing.

My first impression (looks only) of Dr. Lane was not a real positive one. He had dark circles under both eyes and just looked tired and washed out. I'm glad I didn't go on my first impression though! He was very patient, witty, understanding and informative. He even complimented me on my scar from my back surgery! He felt confident that I would be approved if I could get a letter from my ortho. dr. Dr. Lane talked about the pros/cons of the surgery and the risks that would come with having it. He didn't talk alot about after care, but he did stress that it was a lifestyle change and it was hard work. I was not impressed with his nurse. She had NO personality at all and made me feel very uncomfortable for even being there. After Dr. Lane was through with me he forwarded me to the insurance clerk that was very nice. She told me what I needed to provide them with and made copies of record referrals to give to my other drs. So far so good. Just hope the insurance approves!

Met with Dr. Lane on 5-16-02. Dr. Lane appears very professional and competant. He explained the surgery and answered all my questions.

I really liked him he actually looked me in the eye and i didn't see disgust in his eyes.The staff was really nice ansewered any questions i had.I liked everything about the visit and i'm glad i chose him.HE WENT over all the pro's and con's of the surgery with me and told me about after care and really showed an interst in what was best for me not just fattening his wallet.The only bad thing was i had to wait 3 months to even get in to see him.But it was worth it.

confident, explained things well, took his time with me, answered questions in detail, aleveated some fears, staff was nice, busy office, part of the Wienstien Group in Mobile, AL I am going to pre-op tests april 5th, and the surgery is on the 16th of April. Aftercare is important, and that this was a last resort, to weight loss, I have tried so hard on diets all of my life. He told me the risks of the surgery were like any other risks of major surgery. I am having a lap RNY, I liked him, and I think that his group has support meetings for "US" Will tell more soon!!!!!!

MY SURGEON WAS A VERY HONEST AND NICE PERSON.
I AM STILL WELL PLEASED WITH HIM.
THEY WERE VERY FRIENDLY AND HELPFUL.
I HAVE NO COMPLAINTS WITH HIM SO FOR.
HE HAS A LONG WAITING LIST TO SEE HIM.
VERY IMPORTANT.
DO NOT KNOW.
HE EXPLAINED ALL THE RISK GOOD OR BAD VERY WELL.
A VERY GOOD DOCTOR SO FAR.
DO NOT KNOW YET.

My first impression of Dr. Lane was that he is
a good listener. He listened to me and answered
all of my questions. I feel that he is an
honest man with my health at the top of his
list. The staff has also been a pleasure to
deal with. They let you know right off that
if I have any questions, please call...That
means a lot!! On a scale of 1-10 I rate the
entire office a 9!!
