Hello,

I had Dr. Suh at inland Valley. I wanted Loma Linda in Murrieta as well but HMO approved Inland Valley and I had a good experience. The nurses were kind, gentle and caring and I spent just the estimated 2 nights so things went well.

Every single person at Inland Valley hospital had something good to say about Dr. Suh, from the volunteer who checked me in to the surgery prep nurses, anesthesiologist, Dietician, etc. that made a very favorable impression on me. One of the nurses, said he would be the only surgeon she would consider for herself or her family if they needed a laparoscopic operation of any type. He may not be the most charming guy in the world with his patients but I really couldn't care less about that...his reputation as a surgeon is far more important.

He has a strict post op eating plan including NO deserts, chips, soda ever again in your life.

He requires attendance at support group and I like the one on Wednesdays at Loma Linda but there are several choices.

My insurance was Health Net HMO with Inland Valley doctors group and it was approved in less than 5 days.

Dr Belzberg- at Kaiser South Bay, I love in Corona.

Revising from a band to sleeve due to complications.

Amazing dr, Kaiser has been awesome.

I have only been insured with them for 2 months and no issue switching it out!
