Tracy Pitt
"The office setting is quite good. There is a beautiful waiting area, nice modern, up to date exam rooms. I have never felt more comfortable in an exam room as a matter of fact. The staff is very helpful and knowledgable. Dr. Pitt is a classic surgeon - appears to feel most comfortable in scrubs and probably would prefer to operate more than go over small dietary details but that is what the \"team\" is for. I really like working with my nutritionist as well as the 2 RNS I met who did all the education. They also have dedicated team psychologists. The aftercare has been meticoulous with regard to instructions which are all reviewed ahead of time and provided in writing. I would have Dr. Pitt do my surgery ANY time again (not that I'll need it of course). The post op results so far are excellent and my recovery is going well. He implemented every mode of preventing blood clots I'd read about and utilizes a great pain relieving device that helps to reduce your post op pain for several days without narcotics. Of course, a liquid narcotic was also perscribed but with both, I was very comfortable and didn't need much of the oral medication. Dr. Pitt's practice is in a \"center of excellence\".rn My surgeon's surgical competence is excellent from my perspective and I would highly recommend him to others. He does RNY, Lap Band and VSG procedures. If you are looking for a doctor whose number one strength is handholding this may not be your surgeon - but if you want expert surgical care, he is. I'm not saying he wouldn't hold your hand but I think some patients are looking for a warm, fuzzy personality in all their physicians and that isn't his personality style. He is a great professional."
