"I was going to have Dr. Printen from Evanston do my surgery but decided on Dr. Leslie McClellan. I really liked her alot from my first visit, she was very informative and I liked the way she answered my questions and I really liked the fact that my appointment time was my time she was not rushing me so that she could go and tend to something or someone else, she is really great. Someone from her office will call me in October with an exact surgery date I am so excited but I know as the day draws closer it will change to nervous. I am happy to know that although Dr. McClellan does not do Lap her technique only leaves like a two inch scar, I am really glad about that because belly dancing is not belly dancing unless you show some belly ( just kidding) but I am glad that the scar will be small. I will keep posting as I hear more about my date.
I would rate Dr. McClellan at a 10, 10 being the highest. Her staff I found some of them to be nicer in person verses over the phone. She stresses after care as important as the surgery itself.She was straight forward with the risks and answered all my questions, I like the fact that she has been doing this for like 11 years or more I can't remember the exact number but it is a long time. I also like the fact that she specializes in abdominal bariatric surgery and she is board certified.Her bedside manner is great and I think bedside manner and surgical competence is important. I also like her success rate and mortality rate. I am putting my life in her hands and I have confidence in her abilities and capabilities."
"The hospital was good, some of the staff was great while others were not so great, in fact some of them was part of the reason I chose to leave and go home as soon as I did, but then some of them I just wish I could have stayed with longer or brought them home with me to take care of me here at home. I just adored some of them."
