Sidney Rohrscheib

"Dr Syd first impressed me as very knowledgable and caring, he went into great detail with DH and I to show us the Lapband, what he would be doing and what to expect. I went into his office thinking about Lap RNY, and he has almost stopped doing them. rnI was told that the results were the same 5 yrs out.rnrnI was told by the office staff that the Dr was definately using the new AP band and it would be no problem to get one and they would make sure he knew that I wanted it. When I was on the way to surg I reminded him I wanted a new AP band, Sorry Carle doesn't have them, so I got a small band.....frustrationrnAlso, I told him I had problems w/codeine, nausea and headache. He gave me liq lortab that has codeine and I had a 3 day migraine.....I wasn't real happy w/ his listening skills. I understand th needs to stick with what is working, but there is no reason it can't be tweeked a little for a good reason. Dr Rohrscheib did a great job with my surgery. My incisions are all but healed and had very little discomfort. He repaired a hiatal hernia and removed adhesions from my gallbladder scar. That was very nice to hear, Thank God he didn't turn back. All in all he is very good. rnrnThe nurses were 1st rate, my IV was put in with the very 1st stick and the lab got my blood on the very 1st stick. Yeah. "
