Crestwood Medical Center Hospital












Dr Mailapur is one of those rare and precious doctors who realize that they are CAREGIVERS. He is genuinely concerned with your wellbeing and also concerned with the kind of care his staff gives. At every visit he asks if you were treated well by him and his staff and if you have any concerns with their care and treatment of you. That means a lot.rnrnHis office staff is very friendly and helpful.rnrnHe will NOT schedule an appt with you for a consult on WLS until you have been to one of the free seminars he gives. He is a real believer in patient education. At the initial seminar you receive a folder-full of educational information. At the initial consultation you also receive another book of information he has put together. After you have met with both he and his dietician Claudia- you take a test on the information regarding the diet to be certain you understand what they have told you. You also take another little test on the day of your pre-op visit. rnrnhave to say I was both impressed with his surgical skill and bedside manner. But most of all, I was impressed with the level of care he is determined to give.

Dr Forman is a very informanable man,takes a serious attitude towards RNY.Wants you to be certain you are ready for this surgery,and serious enough to except the rest of your life decision.The office staff is great,like all Dr.offices very busy.He stresses after care the most important.I highly recommend him to any and everyone considering this surgery.

Dr. Suggs,made a very knowledgable impression of the bariatric surgery on me the first time I met him. He will give you a very comfortabe feeling about this surgery, even knowing that ther are risks. He actually took a yr. off from his practice to learn from experienced Drs. to perform this surgery. His office staff is wonderful! They are there to answer questions and to make sure you are well informed. I haven't even had my surgery yet and I would give him a 10 rating. He is a very thorough physician.This is my personal opinion of Dr. Suggs.anyone else will have to use their own feelings of how they feel about him and his staff.rn

I would like to say I am very impressed with Dr.Mailapur. He is very competent and very kind. He came to visit me in the hospital every day and was very kind to me in the office. He answered all my questions and was very reassuring. He also took every precaution to make sure there would be no complications.I would recommend him to anyone having bariatric surgery.I did have to have my gall bladder taken out four weeks past surgery. But Dr.Mailapur was there every step of the way. He was very kind and was there any time to handle any questions I had.
