"I like Dr. Reed he is very straightforward and I think he and I understand each other. I like his staff very much. Again I tend to be very forthright and I appreciate the same from the professionals I deal with. I am looking forward to moving on to the next phase. I am waiting for my date for surgery, I am also taking Nancy's (nutritionist) advice and revising my eating habits, overall so far a good experience.rnI am now post op and I can safely say that Dr. Reed is an excellent surgeon, I have not had a moment where I felt unsure re: my surgical teams competence. My anesthesiologist Dr. Maykut was also excellent and his bedside manner was above average.rnrnDr. Reed's bedside manner is one of a surgeon who is also a perfectionist and he is not the type to make small talk he is all business. That being said I am fine with his bedside manner because I trust him to tell me exactly what I need to do and not get distracted with other insignificant stuff. I have met a number of other patients of his as well as medical colleagues of his and they all had the highest praise for his prowess as a surgeon and particular a bariatric surgeon. Safe to say that I would highly recommend him. On a scale of 1-10 I would give him a 10 for the surgery."
