Dr. Dutta is an AMAZING surgeon. He was kind, listened to me and addressed all my concerns. He made me feel comfortable and like I was in good hands. I'm sad now that I dont get to see him anymore! Kaiser Fremont has us follow another doctor at 3 months post op. I recommend him highly. He is a brilliant surgeon and a great person.
Dr Dutta is awesome, he did an a very good job and when I was looking into surgery everyone that knew of him spoke highly of him and I was very pleased when I found out he was to do my surgery. I give him 5 stars.
My surgeon was absolutely amazing!! He takes time to answer any of my questions. He doesn't make you feel rushed. He sincerely cares about his patients. HE IS AWESOME!!
December 5th,2008 today I met with Dr. Lawrence Dennen (Chief of the Bariactric Department). This was my consultation, Dr. Dennen gave a friendly and professional first impresssion. He was knowledgable about the various WLS procedures and took the time to explain the pros and cons of each. His staff at the "Bariatric Center at Kaiser Permanente Hospital" was friendly and prompt with returning call about any questions I had before and afer the office visit. He is a skilled surgeon. I am pleased to have been approved for the RNY procedure and I will give you more information once I have a date and the surgery is done. Thank you for allowing me to share.

I spoke to my surgeon's program coordinator (Nancy) darn it I have to come down to 210lbs before they will set my appointment with the pysch for the evaluation. Thank goodness I do not have that much more to go.I can't wait. Well ass of January 29th I am at that 210 weight goal for the psych appointment, and yes it has been set for Feb 5th. I can't explain what I am feeling at this point, nervous, happy, excited and scared to death. But I thank God it is almost there and I will be a healthier me.
I have just had my procedure and my doctor is the best, he is all I thought he would be and his staff took excellent care of me. Dr. D did tell me to stay off the scale for about 2 weeks (LOL).
Well it is now 6 motnhs out from my procedure and I am in it to win it, the race as been good to me. I am at 165lbs and feeling great. I am exercising but not like wish I could, work and family tired etc. I am very please however with the entire process, I have soooo .... much more energy. I feel sexy, I feel alive, I can tie my own shoe (LOL).....I can shave and see what I am shaving (this is big for me). I will post some pics very soon, coming from 226lbs to 165 in this short period of time is a gift from GOD and my doctor.

My fist impression of Dr.Chu was she is very straight foward, caring, and knows what shes talking about! She is great, everyone in her office is so nice and seem to really care about patients. After my surgery she came to visit my several times to make sure I was okay and had everything I needed even thought my surgery was perfect she said.She made sure I had everything I needed to go home and then some and made sure I didnt have any unanswered questions. I would recommend her to anyone I know for any surgery!
Dr. Chu has been a wonderful doctor through out the entire process. She answers emails directly and timely. She has been very responsive to my questions and when I have had issues relating to surgery. I had to return to the hospital and she called me in my room as soon as she found out and arrived to discuss what we could do. Her recommendations did the job. rnShe does speak quickly which some may take as rushed. I didn't go into the process expecting my hand to be held by my surgeon so I never felt I was being pushed through. They do run a tight schedule but I was given plenty of time and opportunity to pose any concerns or questions. I am very happy with Dr Chu. rnI would rate her a 10 out of 10.
The nurses I had were great, the best Ive had in years! They really seemed to care about you and were very responsive to my every need.
My first Impression of Dr. Hahn was good. I was impressed that he took the time to listen. He seemed busy, but very knowledgeable and experienced and equally as important he took the time I needed to be comfortable with the surgery and with his and his staff's experience- I appreciated that.
I am now 4 weeks out from surgery, and I can tell you that Dr Hahn is absolutely wonderful! Both his surgical competence and his bedside manner are exceptional! He is very responsive with questions post-op, and replies to emails very quickly. I highly recommend him. Absolutely no complaints here. (Other than a snarky head nurse during the day shift that I could've done without - but the rest of the nursing staff were kind, compassionate, and supportive.)
His office staff are also wonderful. Very supportive and responsive! Dr Hahn emphasizes aftercare and has a structured aftercare program and support team. He fully addressed the risks of surgery and continues to take the time to answer all my questions, as new questions come up.
My first impressions were that she is a good listener and very experienced. She addressed all my questions in a caring non judgemental way. I met her one time and already feel safe and am glad I got her as my surgeon.
