Dr. Jawad is a professional/expert in his field. Although he is very impersonal he tells you like it is. He lays the risks and advantages before you and allows you to chose. The office staff is not the greastest, but if you stay on top of them you should be okay. Future, patients should not expect to develope a relationship with Dr. Jawad, you will probably see him no more than three to four times and that's including the days after surgery. I did not even get to see him the morning of surgery. I would say overall he is an expert and knows what he's doing. He's surgical competence would be the greatest assest as your beside care would come from the hospital staff.

This man was the most considerate and thoughtful doctor I had ever met. He didn't shame me or make me feel embarrassed. My surgery was great and I had no complications. Dr. Jawad's staff was complete in informing and helping with pre op and post op information and care. This man and his staff are phenominal!!!!

Dr. Jawad is highly competent, knowledgeable, and thorough. I highly recommend him as a WL surgeon.
He keeps a large staff very busy with his practice, so it's hard sometimes to feel any personal connection - but that's the inherent nature of his practice.
There's lots of paperwork and patience needed in the prep for surgery portion of the process, and I'm not sure I'd want to run his office myself, so KUDOS to his staff!

My first impression of Dr Jawad was that he was very much about his business and very professional. However, I found him to be more friendly on his rounds post-op at the hospital. His office staff is professional. The thing I like the least about Dr Jawad is that he doesn't come across as being very friendly, however, he is a surgeon. The education about the procedure risks, aftercare, etc is excellent. He and his office staff make sure that you are throughly educated on the procedure and what you need to do. Overall, I think that Dr Jawad is very skilled, educated and experienced in bariatric surgery. I would highly recommend him for a surgeon.

So far haven't met Dr Jawad, but have to admit that some of his staff, the Pre-determination Department in particular, is not the best customer service oriented. They take an eternity to give an answer back and you are just left hanging. If it wasn't for the money and time invested plus Dr Jawad's great credential, I would have walked away long time ago. Really hope they get to change this!!!!

Dr. J totally ROCKS!! He saved my life...and my husband too. Mike went from 330# (55\" waist) to 180 (32\" waist). I went from 265#(size 32) to 145 (size 8) and still losing. I was absolutely THRILLED with Dr. J and his staff. They returned calls immediately and were ALWAYS available when needed. rnrnAfter extensive research, one of the many aspects of Dr. J's surgery that is different from most every doctor is....his surgery only takes 45 mins! Most every other doctor takes from 2-3 HOURS! rnrnI was treated like a princess in the hospital with exceptional pain managment.

When I went to the seminar I never expected all the information me and my husband received. I got taught exactly why I wasn't losing weight and why I could not keep any weight off. I met him today for the first time alone in the office and I am happy to say he is a serious but excellent doctor. He informed me I would need the DS surgery and for some reason I feel confident he will do good with me. I really like his staff they are really nice and helpful.
