Dirk I Rodriguez

"Dr. Dirk Rodriguez is great. He knows what he's doing. This is a doctor who cares about his patients and has the staff who also cares. I highly recommend him. He is knowledgeable, caring and most importantly, no nonsense, he won't lie to you. He will tell it like it is. Risks, your responsibilities, your needs after the surgery, and all you are facing. The lifelong commitment you are making. This guy knows what he is doing and what he is talking about and he will turn you down if he doesn't think you are serious about this or don't need it. He really puts an emphasis on how the Roux-N-Y is a life changing surgery and stresses the importance of after care. It’s like I said earlier he was upfront about the risks of the surgery and explained everything in detail. He makes all his patience go to a pre-op seminar and get a psychological evaluation before scheduling surgery. He is insistent on you taking care of your part. I like him. And he has a really great staff. Like I said this is a doctor who cares about his patients. I have nothing but positive comments about Dr. Dirk Rodriguez and his staff, particularly his nurse, Karen. They were informative and encouraging throughout the process. I would encourage any one considering WLS to see Dr. Rodriguez. Be careful of your choice of surgeon, ask many questions, and check for board certification and not some one who decided over night to start doing WLS. Ask about the number of post op complications and even deaths of your surgeon’s previous patients!!!!! "
