Yes I used Dr. Umbach and he and his entire team are fantastic. Michelle the Nutritionist is an amazing resource who is easy to communicate with via email or phone...always there for me with any questions I have...even months after surgery.

The entire experience there was easy and they make you feel comfortable the whole time. I was a cash patient, so I didn't have to deal with insurance requirements, and was able to use their state-of-the-art, brand new surgical center instead of dealing with a hospital. Went in at 7 am to prep (was first surgery of that day) and was on my home by noon. I've lost over 100 pounds so far and I am feeling great.

I was sleeved by Dr. Umbach on 8/30/16. Can't say enough good things about the entire team. I live in Las Vegas and my insurance required me to use North Vista and stay one night. I had a very good experience there as well. I've also had a few appointments with Dr. Apell and he is also great.

Feel free to PM me if you have more questions.

Dr Umbach was also my surgeon. My experience was awesome! His team was great to work with. I was self pay so I didn't have any insurance requirements. My recovery was so smooth that I was walking around the Hoover dam two days after my surgery.

That name rang a bell. I do not know him at all but read this yesterday:

There is a patient of him here that had a horrible experience. I think is the same as the link posted earliest.

be very careful I just caught his office lying about billing my insurance when in fact they never even filed a claim and now it is being reported to medicare as QMB patient that is fraud.
