Charles Callery
"Attended Dr. Callery's educational seminar with my husband on 9/4/01. Appreciated his knowledge, honesty and enthusiasm for his line of surgery. He is a general surgeon but enjoys the bariatic side of his practice because of the happy outcome. Kind of like delivering babies. Dr. Callery performs 6 to 8 RNY Open Gastric Bypass surgeries per week. Not as many lap (about 17+ so far - all successful). He admits he is most comfortable with an open procedure than lap. He and his staff are big on pre-op education and requires prospective bypass patients to attend a Pre-Op Nutrition Seminar and one of his General Support Groups prior to surgery. They appear to be extremely supportive and provide much post-op support also. It is very structured which I'm sure they discovered best aids their post op patients. I have investigated other surgeons and was most impressed with Dr. Callery's surgical competence, knowledge, honesty and compassion. 10/16/01 - Blue Cross approved me and surgery scheduled for 10/30/01. I wanted to let you know how professional and always pleasant Dr. Callery's office staff is. Especially, Kimi. I've probably called her everyday for the last 10 days and she is always pleasant and encouraging. "
