"The Bariatric Center for New Hope is a wonderful program run out of Memorial Medical Center. It's designed to prepare you for surgery and to help you with aftercare. It is such an extensive program and I felt well prepared on what to expect before, during and after surgery. We have monthly support group meetings that are extremely helpful and everyone is like family. Our team leader Nurse Susie is so knowledgeable and even has a band herself so she knows exactly what we are going through. "
"I first met Dr Heydari at the Bariatric info session in Feb 2007. Of course, the first thought I had was how handsome he is! But once he started speaking about the Bariatric Center at Memorial Medical Center and how he is dedicated to helping obese people, I was enthralled. He is very charismatic and his credentials are impeccable. He is always the professional and expects his staff to be as well. His program is very comprehensive and he makes sure that all his future patients know the risks of surgery. He emphasizes that aftercare is just as important as the surgery itself. Many followup visits are required. He is very caring and visits you before the surgery and afterwards and explains everything in detail. I would recommend Dr Heydari to anyone who is thinking of bariatric surgery."
