I prefer not to say. The care is very professional but atmosphere quite cool.

I am 18 months out and when I saw your post I had to smile.... "she" is indeed a Nut, also very pushy, condecending and I have caught her in a few lies!

I like everyone else there, Dr Larson is great, a skilled surgeon who always knows what to do. My very favorite is Kendra, she not only has an awesome personality, shes very compaaionate, at smart too!! Good luck to you in your journey!

OMG I am so glad to have seen these posts about "her". I almost didn't have it done there because of her. Dr. Simon is my surgeon, but I like everyone else. Monday is my surgery! I am excited and nervous. I have another "therapist" here in PSL that I relate to much better. Thanks goodness!

terrible bedside manners but staff was great except the phycologist is a NUT CASE!!!!....she needs head help!!!

I had a fairly good experience. I found everyone, including the psychologist, to be professional and caring. I never felt rushed, or as if I was a bother in any way. I appreciated the crisp businesslike approach because I am not a touchy feely type of person myself. As professionals they have a fine line to walk. they have to be careful not to be misread in any way.

Besides, I believe the results are more important than whether or not I would wish to socialize with anyone on the team. I believe most staff people are more public oriented than the Medical professionals in most cases regardless of the field they may be in.

I thought they did a bang up job all the way around and I will forever be greatful for their expertise and service.

      Just been waiting until time for my consult with my bariatric surgeon. It's scheduled for Jan 9th. Turns out I won't actually be seeing him. Apparently it'll be with his P.A.             Not sure what to expect. I thought this is where the surgeon would discuss the best surgery option for me. For years I had my heart set on the sleeve, but I've read so many people have issues with reflux - even if they've never had it before - that they've had to be revised to the bypass. I already deal with GERD & take 40 mg of Omeprazole daily, so I started studying about bypass and honestly, it seems like it might be the better choice for me. How can we discuss surgery options if the surgeon is not there?
      What happened at your first consult? Trying to get an idea of what to expect, or maybe I should say, what NOT to expect.

      I would like to know what questions you wish you had asked prior to your duodenal switch surgery?
