"My first impression with Dr. DiMarco was favorable. Dr. DiMarco took his time and addressed my concerns about the by-pass surgery. My impression did not change and became stronger as I met with Dr. DiMarco. Dr. DiMarco did my EGD and his bedside manner was exceptional! The Staff at the "Weight Loss Clinic" is exceptional. The staff is friendly, cheerful, courteous and helpful with all my questions, concerns and needs. I have searched high and low for a negative thing about Dr. DiMarco and his staff and there is nothing that I have experienced. Future patients should make sure they research every possible thing about by-pass surgery and become familiar with the process. Patients should strive to lose as much weight as possible on their own to make the surgery much easier on themselves and for the surgeon. Patients should ask questions and remember, the dumbest question anyone can ask is the one they don't ask! After care from the surgery is a big part of the surgery itself. Everyone at the Weight Loss Clinic wants their patients to get the most from their surgery. The staff is very concerned about the proper vitamins and nutrients and follows the patient closely. The risk of surgery was addresses very clearly and in common terms. Dr. DiMarco and I discussed the one patient he lost from by-pass surgery. He was still taken aback by this loss and has incorpoarted measures to prevent additional deaths. On a scale from 1 to 10, with 10 being the highest, I rate Dr. DiMarco and his staff a "12"! Dr. DiMarco's surgical competence and bedside manners are second to none. "
