He is a very kind, caring man. He is very sensitive to his patients needs. He explained the surgery in terms that myself and my husband were able to understand, and took enough time to answer every question we had. He went over my health history with me, and was very open to ideas on what to do with some of my conditions. Very very professional!

Dr. Strand is a fantastic doctor. Very down to earth. Good about answering any questions. His staff is the same way. Dr. Stand is up front about the surgery and possible complications. They scheduled my surgery so he could follow up before he leaves on vacation. He cares very much about his patients. Not only do you follow up with him, but also the Bariatician, Dr. Filler. I give Dr. Stand high marks!!
