Robert Liem
"I first called Dr. Liem's office on Thursday, January 11, 2001 to inquire about an appointment to discuss gastric bypass surgery. They gave us an appointment the following week on Tuesday, January 16. I was very suprised and pleased to be able to get in to see him so quickly. His office is rather small and older and the most surprising thing is that the seats are mostly small with arms. I fit OK, but my husband weights 469 and he barely squeezed in the seat and was uncomfortable. I thought that was strange. All in all though, our visit was very good and very informative. We had to wait a while and fill out some paperwork. I had prepared a write up of a lot of detailed information for both of us which they appreciated. We first met with Maria who was very pleasant, and informative. She described the process, answered a lot of questions and weighed us. We then met with Dr. Liem. He also is very nice and answered more questions. We saw lots of pictures of patients that they have done surgery for - very impressive. He explained not only the benefits of the surgery but also the risks. He also has an aftercare program and a monthly support group, so it just won't end after the surgery. I like that! Since our first appointment I have tried not to bother them too much, but have called weekly to check on the status of our insurance. They file the insurance and I don't need to do anything with that. So far we are very happy with Dr. Liem and his staff and feel that he has both surgical competence as well as a good bedside manner.
