Stanley Hoehn Bariatric Surgeon M.D., F.A.C.S.

My stay at the hospital was wonderful- more like a vacation than anything. Dr. Hoehn and his team took great care of me- he did a wonderful job with the surgery. I haven't had any complications, and sometimes I wonder if he actually did the surgery!!

Dr. Hoehn was great! Some of the surgeons I checked out, before I saw Dr. Hoehn, felt like a used care salesman trying to sell me something I really didn't want. Dr. Hoehn does at least three different bariatric surgeries, so he didn't tied to selling me one over the other. He helped me choose the right one for me. Also, Dr. Hoehn figures that since he can perform his surgeries quickly and get a few more people through, and he is already making plenty of money, so he doesn't need to charge as much as a lot of surgeons. Additionally, I felt very safe and secure in Dr. Hoehn's care. He was up on the latest research, and could talk to me from that stand point.

Dr. Hoehn was wonderful, he is always so kind, So understanding and so confident, he is a wonderful surgeon and I would recommend him to anyone, I am very glad that I chose him as my surgeon, we have local surgeons but I decided to travel to make sure I had the best, and he is the best.... thank You Dr Hoehn for changing my life.

Dr. Hoehn is very professional, friendly, and supportive. His staff is very friendly as well. Overall, it was a great expereince.

Thanks to Dr. Hoehn and his amazing staff, this process has been an incredible experience. I would highly recommend Dr. Hoehn and the Shawnee Bariatric Center to anyone nearby or to those that would like to travel so you can get the best surgery and care. Heartland Surgical and Speciality Center was fantastic as well!

In my opinion, Dr. Hoehn is an amazing surgeon. I had absolute confidence in his ability and experience. Based on my research and meetings with him, I felt like I would be getting an excellent surgery that would provide me with a great tool to lose weight. Dr. Hoehn is without a doubt the person I would recommend to anyone who wanted to have baratric surgery. One caveat to those considering Dr. Hoehn...he is a surgeon. He is not a psychologist, nutritionist, life coach, support group member, or primary care physician. He will not hold your hand or be heavily involved in your follow-up care. His expertise is in performing weight loss surgery and in that respect, he is the best. With that said, his practice does an amazing job of providing the people to fill in the gaps. Meetings with a psychologist and nutritionist are required, the follow-up care is great (although not provided by Dr. Hoehn) and support groups meet monthly. It may be best said that Dr. Hoehn is a critical part of a great team. If I had to do this over again, I would choose Dr. Hoehn every time.

This is no hype... Dr. Hoehn saved my life! I was morbidly overweight causing me to be in and out of the hospital and emergency rooms. I was extremely impressed by Dr. Hoehn's presence at the orientation and selected him to perform my operation and he didn't let me down. All staff members I have come into contact with prior to my surgery and since have been absolutely wonderful! In the seven months after my gastric bypass surgery I have lost 102 pounds. It is a beautiful thing! I can walk in large stores without feeling like I am knocking on heaven's door, I can take a shower without severe back pain,and most importantly I have life.

I am currently a patient of Dr. S. Hoehn, and he is preforming the VSG on me on 3/2/17. Thus far, he has proven to me that he is caring, he knows what he is talking about (just look at his years of experience), and his team is the best I have come across. I have had co-workers and friends go to him, and I truly see why everyone I know has referred him and his team to me. These guys are truly the best and top notch Bariatric Surgeons in our area. As far as Dr. Hoehn himself, I have never in my life had a Doctor, Surgeon, Person in the Medical field be a heartfelt and concerned for his patients. During my 2 week Pre-op appointment, I was shaking like a leaf, not just because of the pending surgery, but because I had so much on my plate outside of this. He was so concerned that he wanted to know what was going on. After giving him the very short and sweet story, he gave me a hug, told me that everything will be fine now, and that he is going to take care of me during surgery. I can't tell you just how much that meant to me...it blew me out of the water and beyond. Because of this amazing person and his team, I will be referring anyone and everyone to them. Dr. Stanley Hoehn is the epitome of excellence in medicine and of caring for his patients!

Great experience with Dr. Hoehn and with the facility and staff of KC Bariatric Center Prairie Star. They took great care of us and were willing to take whatever time was needed to answer all our questions. And even when I stumped someone, they found the answer and got back to us. Great care. Recommend Dr. Hoehn and the staff to anyone looking at this procedure.

Dr. Hoehn did a wonderful RNY on me in July 2009! I have had no complications and the experience was very positive. This was the best decision of my life and Dr. Hoehn did an amazing job! I have maintained a 115lb weight loss :) (My highest was 255lbs and my current is 140lbs)
