"I cannot say enough about the wonderful and caring treatment I was given, before and after surgery. WLS is a specialization of this facility."

David Coster

"Found Dr. Coster through this website. Everything I read about him is right on target! He is very professional, sincere, impressive, and just plain knows what he is doing. This is my third consultation with a surgeon, including the Mayo Clinic and he is heads above the rest. He is direct, to the point and provides all the information before you have to ask for it. His staff do their part, not quickly, but they do it.I found the doctor a bit rushed and had to slow him down to answer some of my questions, but he did answer them. I was handed a video tape to watch saying it would be helpful and it was. He explained what he does after surgery and his role as a "coach" but did not go into what kind of aftercare program he promotes. He explained exactly what he will do during the surgery and drew a diagram of how he will do it. He did not explain the risks but he also knew I've spoken with other surgeons. At this point I rate him a 10 on a scale of 10. "
