"First impression of the doc is that he's very quiet and reserved. His exam was quick and very professional. He actually recommended I have the RNY, but I explained the reasons I wanted the band and he agreed with me. He definitely listens to what his clients want. The only thing I'd have wanted different is that I'd have a follow up appointment the next day with him to ask all the questions I needed. He did visit me after I woke up, but I was too groggy to think of any questions. Robin the nutritionist is the best! So are the other ladies I dealt with in his office. There is a very structured aftercare program including a diet, support group meetings, and fills. He addressed the risks of surgery very seriously, and I was definitely scared about what I was going into. I count that as a very good thing. Overall, I'd pick him again in a heartbeat. My scars are all in a line at my waist, I really like their placement and their size. He seems like a very caring man and expert surgeon."
