Milton Owens Bariatric Surgeon

Clean cut and professional looking

Office staff is GREAT! Very helpful and kind
Dr.Owens is a very skilled surgeon and does good work.

He does a good job with the surgery. I haven't had any problems with the actual proceedure. I did have a post op infection but I was told this was not uncommon with wound infections.

The aftercare program is one of the best I know of. They have weekly meetings and allot of support for pre-op and post-op patients.

So far Dr. Owens and his staff have been wonderful! My first meeting was 12/20/99, pre-op 2/8/00, and surgery scheduled for 2/18/00.

-he was very brilliant, very focused

-not emotionally supportative but gives very good physical care

-office staff always available to answer questions

-his brusque manner

-they are getting a brilliant surgeon

-he wants to continue seeing patients...even if they cannot afford the visits anymore as he wants to do follow up

-yes

-very good

-surgical competence

I liked Dr. Owens overall approach - blunt and frank. His office staff is exceptional. Really on the ball. Though I don't know that I feel I really know what I am getting in to. I mean, I know it is a medical necessity for me. But, for instance, I'd like a sample of the types of meals I would prepare in the future. There are risk in all surgeries, and I think he covered that well. But I feel I need to do more research for myself. Your first visit you are nervous, you forget to ask important questions, things are done so quickly. I'm sure once the surgery is approved by my insurance, we will sit down and go over more of this. (I hope!)

excellent..very caring..and his post op care is excellent too..
