Robert Marema
"After spending hours on the net and at this website, I kept reading raving reviews about Dr. Marema. Word of mouth speaks waves, so I decided to go to one of his Monday night seminars. he gave the presentation himself, and my first impression of him was excellent. he was compassionate and NEVER demeaning. His understanding is genuine considering he, too, has had this surgery done. Dr. Fobi did his surgery and Dr. Marema practices this technique. This was another one of my deciding factors. He gave an excellent slide presentation explaining the surgery, his technique in detail, the anatomy that will be altered, potential risks, and complications. He had percentages and stats on the sugeries he has performed and presented them in the slide show as well. He also went over post-op care and the importance of diet and exercise for the best possible results. Then we got to meet his staff. Most of his staff has also had this surgery peformed on them by Dr. Marema himself, even his wife! Now that is a great reputation! lol After the slide show, his nurse, Debbie (who was great-she is so knowledgeable!)had an informal Q & A session. Then his staff called each of us back,weighed us, made copies of our license's, insurance info, and set an appointment for our "long" 3 hour seminar with Debbie. I believe during this meeting she goes over, in all it's gory details, the intricacies of the surgery pre, during, and post-op.I guess it is meant to give you a "reality check" as to what you are getting yourself into. (I think at this point, if you haven't educated yourself enough to pretty much know what to expect, then you need to do your homework!). The ONLY negative thing I could possibly think of was that he was kind of rushed to get to another appointment that night. But hey, he's a doctor! I think I found a great combination of surgical competence and bedside manner in Dr. Marema. Just read all his patient's reviews yourself!"
