Denis Halmi

"When I first met Dr. Halmi, I thought he was very quiet. He is very direct, which I like in a doctor, and very compassionate. It's like he can look into my eyes and see my pain and frustration with weight loss. His staff is very efficient and friendly. His receptionist helped me push my primary care for the necessary referrals the same day I first appeared in his office. I would have liked for Dr. Halmi to be a little more talkative in the beginning. I always got the impression that he wants his patients to know up front the risks and that he takes this whole procedure and its process very seriously. I would like for everyone to know that Dr. Halmi is a very considerate doctor. He actually comes to the support group meetings and follows up with you immediately if you have a concern or question. On a scale of 1 to 10, I would rate him at this point (pre-surgery) as being a 9. I physically watched this man come to a meeting and whip out his palm pilot to make sure that he rescheduled a patient who had the misfortune of scheduling her labs on the same day as her pre-surgery visit with him. He didn't leave it up to the patient to call the office the next business day. He took the initiative to write her name down in his palm and inform her that he can work around her schedule. I'd say that both his bedside manner and his surgical competence are both great. I look forward to the future with him as my doctor."
