George Kazantsev

"At my first consultation I wasn't sure about Dr. Kazantsev, he was very direct and pointed out more of the risks and draw backs of the surgery rather than the benefits. When I assured him I had done my homework and wanted to proceed he said okay and was gone. The next time I saw him was the day of the endoscopy and he was pleasant enough. I then went for my pre-op and he was much warmer and reasurring. Unfortunately I had to postpone my original surgery because I got an URI the week before my surgrery was scheduled. I had to go for a second pre-op and I found Dr. K even more friendly and warm but still pretty quiet. During the whole process his staff has been super. From Helen and Nicole to DeAngela I have had every question you could think of answered. So I had my surgery on 1/24/06. I was awake and wanting something to wet my mouth sooner than anyone (including my husband) expected. I did use the pump some but mostly because of a horrible headache. I felt like I had been out drinking instead of having surgery. I went home on the 3rd day and Dr. K came to see me just before I left and was very supportive. That was Thursday by Saturday I went out shopping with my husband. I did get tired easily but other than that I have not had any problems to speak of. I will be returning to work soon, I see Dr. K again on Wed. for my release. I am down 17.5 as of today and hope to be at least 20 by the time I see him. I couldn't have asked for a better surgeon or staff. I would recommend him to anyone who asked. "

"The only problem I had was finding her office. I left plenty of time and still just made it which added to my stress level, but she didn't."

"He is a really great and caring Doctor. More like a good and trusted friend."
