Robert R. Quaid

"Dr. Quaid seemed very reserved and quiet at our first meeting. Also very up front about the risks of having surgery. My impression has not changed. His staff is very friendly and helpful and knew my name even though I am from out of state. He is soft spoken which is difficult for me since I have a bit of hearing loss. He really is a very conscientious doctor willing to error on the side of caution. Example: He usually does not insert drains but because there was just a tiny spot of dye on a surgical sponge, he inserted the drain. Luckily there was no leak but living with the drain was much better than going through another surgery. He emphasizes aftercare alot. Because I was an out of state patient, I was unable to leave the area for at least a week post surgery "just in case". He also requires that I come back to him for the first year for follow-up visits. He addressed the risks of surgery very straightforwardly stating that because of my size surgery of any kind was a risk and carefully going over with both my husband and I what he would do and the possible complications. I would rate him a Super A+. His surgical competence and bedside manner where both terrific. "

Poudre Valley Hospital (COE)

"SUPER!!! The staff were all very friendly and attentive to my needs. No one who came in my room ever left without asking if there was anything they could do for or get me. Including the precious nurse who listened to my blubbering for over an hour in the middle of one night."
