Southampton Hospital

"I had the finest care and nursing staff I could have possibly imagined. They made my stay there pleasurable under the circumstances. Each and every nurse was nicer than the next. "

Medhat E Allam

"I had been researching this for 3 years, the day I met Dr. Allam, I knew that at that moment I was completly ready. He answered all my questions (the benefits as well as all the risks), before I asked them and his even keel is very comforting. When I left his office, I turned to my dad and said "now I am ready." His staff is equally as nice. I believe that they care about the long term changes for you, they want your sucess almost as much as you do. I could not find one bad thing to say about anyone in that office, so far. Dr Allam and his staff offer the entire package! they give you a list of specialists that are familiar with all the aspects of the surgery, but you are free to use your own doctors as well. He highly recommends the support group (which he attends, along with the nutrionist and the psychologist) and aftercare is a must. I prefer surgical competence in a doctor, which Dr.Allam has, as for his bedside manner, I don't know yet....(after attending the support group and listening to all the stories, it sound like he really cares). If you were looking into this operation, my suggestion would be to do your homework, reasearch the hell out of it and find someone you are comfortable with. I have."
