"Upon meeting Dr. Mattar at the initial patient workshop, I was impressed -- and after having my pre-op appointment I was sure that there was a Divine Power that led me here to UPMC. He is the third surgeon I have had to see concerning WLS, and by far the most skilled. He is compassionate, understanding, and makes you feel at ease from the start. He covers every aspect of your condition, and his staff is exemplary. Bill Grosh, his P.A., is also the best. The entire program at UPMC, by far, surpasses anything I have experienced in the last 4 yrs of trying to have this life-saving surgery. They cover everything from start to finish and beyond. My recommendation for them is FIVE STAR!"
"Mary T. is a wonderful health care provider, who is extremely supportive and honest in her practice. She drew upon some of her own experiences in trying to help me with my surgery journey. I have known her for years and she is excellent!"
"Colleen is very interested in each and every person she deals with. She is a very capable and knowledgeable person and is willing to listen as well as inform. A gem!"
"I have been on this product for 2 months as part of a program to help me lose weight prior to surgery. I find that if I make it up a day ahead of time and refrigerate it, it thickens and the taste resembles a real milkshake. Sometimes I add fruit for a variation. It is very tasty and very nutritional, and I am sure I will use this as a supplement post-surgery."
