William, Jr. Roll

" Well, my family and I met with Dr. Roll this week and am very happy. In fact, with everything going on in my life, I ended up going to his office 24 hours early! He was kind enough to see me and very informative. I took a WLS notebook with me with lots of information from this site and others. He even took a few minutes to read what everyone has said about him! My next steps are to meet with his RD and to get a psyc consult. Both appointments are now set up and after I meet with the RD, I should get my surgery date! All of his staff are great. They are sweet and understanding people plus they are smiling and laughing. It just makes life and the visit easier. Dr. Roll gave me booklets on the surgery and explained it well. He even went into the problems that can occur and his personal success record doing this surgery. Most of all, he stressed that he is part of a team and I am also part of the team and we will be working together for a year. He was also honest about what he feels is a successful surgery (i.e., the risks from obesity are much lessened and what many patients feel is success -- the weight loss only). I and my family really liked him. I have met with the nutritionist, Sally Myers, and she has given me a lot of information and shopping lists for after surgery. I feel more comfortable about what to do after I come home. I have to meet with her once more before surgery. Everyone in Dr. Roll's office is really nice. "
