Dr Suh is quiet but listens to your concerns, he answers all questions and lets you know the pro's & con's for surgery, I would recommend Dr Suh. I was happy to know the staff at Hospital spoke very highly about Dr Suh and said if they had the surgery he would be the Dr to do their procedure. I give Dr Suh 100%.

Dr. Suh was very straight forward he doesn't smile very much. (Lol!) He was really nice though, very informative, answered all of my questions thoroughly. His office staff were ok. I feel very comfortable with Dr. Suh doing my surgery. I would recommend him to anyone!

My first impression of Doc. Suh was that he was all buisiness and so serious. I had a co worker at work who looked him up on the computer and found out how experienced he is is in his field, and I was so glad that he was my surgeon after that. Then In the hospital he came personaly to check on me every day instead of sending a someone else in his place.He was very polite and I feel very lucky to have had him as my surgeon. I liked the office staff better at the office in murriatte but I like the office space in corna better because it was more comfortable. He covers all the stuff you need to know with much detail and i found that he and his staff are very happy and willing to aswer your questions even if they stupid ones. If I had to say there was something I didnt like it would have to be how serious he is all the time, of coarse this kind of surery is serious and no light subject either.

I liked Dr Suh the first time I heard him speak at the seminar. I was glad when I chose him as my surgeon. I felt he is a very caring person. He addressed all my questions & made me feel very at ease prior to my surgery. I went into my surgery with a lot of faith in him. Both his surgical competence & bedside manner were very good.

DR SUH IS VERY DEDICATED TO HIS PATIENTS AND WANTS TO MAKE SURE THAT YOU'RE WELL EDUCATED ABOUT WHAT YOU'RE DOING BEFORE YOU HAVE SURGERY.YOU MUST BE IN GOOD HEALTH, I.E. HAVE DIFFERENT TESTS DONE BEFORE HE WILL DO YOUR SURGERY. IF THINGS AREN'T RIGHT HE WON'T OPERATE UNTIL THEY ARE. MY THYROID LEVELS WERE WAY ELEVATED AND THEY HAD TO BE CONTROLED BEFORE SURGERY. HE'S NOT JUST OUT TO MAKE MONEY LIKE SO MANY BARIATRIC DOCTORS ARE. HE TRULY IS DOING THIS TO HELP PEOPLE. HE MAKES YOU FEEL LIKE YOU'RE IMPORTANT. HE GIVES A SEMINAR WHICH YOU ARE REQUIRED TO ATTEND AND ALSO YOU MUST ATTEND ONE SUPPORT GROUP MEETING GIVEN BY HIS STAFF. rn I DON'T BELIEVE MY OPINION OF DR SUH HAS CHANGED. HE TRULY CARES ABOUT HIS PATIENTS AND ALTHOUGH HE HAS MANY PATIENTS AND IS VERY BUSY HE WILL ALWAYS ANSWER ALL OF MY QUESTIONS WITHOUT MAKING ME FEEL LIKE IT'S NOT IMPORTANT. AS A MATTER OF FACT THE MORE INFORMED YOU ARE THE BETTER HE LIKES IT.rn THE STAFF IS ALSO VERY DEDICATED TO THE PATIENTS NEEDS AND CONCERNS. ONE OF HIS OFFICE STAFF HAD SURGERY 9 YEARS AGO AND LOST 210 POUNDS SINCE THEN AND SHE'S REALLY AN INSPIRATION.rn FUTURE PATIENTS SHOULD KNOW THAT HE IS A WONDERFUL DR AND DOES REQUIRE FOLLOW UP CARE, HE WON'T LEAVE YOU HANGING WITH NO FUTURE FOLLOW UPS. HE HAS A 24 HOUR EMERGENCY NUMBER SO HE CAN ALWAYS BE REACHED IF NEEDED. HE NOT ONLY CARES ABOUT YOU HAVING SURGERY, BUT ALSO ABOUT HOW YOU DO AFTERWARDS. HE IS VERY DEDICATED TO THIS.rn HE HAS A SET AFTERCARE PROGRAM. I HAD TO GO AT 1 WEEK, 1 MONTH AND AGAIN AT 3 MONTHS, 6 MONTHS, 9 MONTHS AND 1 YEAR. THEN ONCE A YEAR FOREVER.rn HE IS WONDERFUL AND MY DAUGHTER IS GOING TO GET SURGERY FROM HIM ALSO.

He was awesome. Any question I asked he explained in detail.

My first impression of him was a little cold and impersonal. I was nervous and uncomfortable as it was and he didn't do anything to reassure me. But as you get to know him better he warms up a little. He is an excellent surgeon and he is more intellectual than social. His staff is absolutely wonderful!!! Michele coordinates everything and she is very friendly and extremely helpful. Dr. Suh and his staff emphasize presurgery education and aftercare support and continued education. Some of his patients I have met had their proceedures done 9 & 10 years ago. If you are in southern California I think he is the surgeon to go to.rnrnPOST OP He wasn't everything I thought he would be.
