Robin P. Blackstone

"I only have good things to say about Dr Blackstone. My first actually meeting with her was on March 11, 2010. She was easy to talk with and answered all the questions I had. She was concerned that my diabetes was not in control as previously thought. Her office and staff were just as nice as Dr Blackstone - they kept in touch, answered my many questions and did not make me feel like a fool for asking the same questions over and over again. Dr Blackstone has a terrific aftercare program - My first appointment is this coming Tuesday for Post Surgical Nutrition. I can't wait! Dr Blackstone and I went over the risks for surgery and the risks of not having surgery. For me it was simple - if I did not have the surgery I was headed for heart disease ... not acceptable. With surgery I have a better chance of getting under control or even eleviating several medical problems I have : type 2 diabetes, high blood pressure, sleep apnea, difficulty walking/sitting for long periods of time. I cannot say that I was not well informed. How would I rate Dr Blackstone? Pretty close to a miracle worker! hahaha She is an excellent surgeon who really care for the quality of her patients lives. I would recommend Dr Blackstone to anyone. I think both are importation, surgical competence and bedside manner. If a surgeon doesn't have both, the patient is not getting the care he/she deserves. Nothing calms a patient faster than a Dr who is just as competent in the operating room as well as in the recovery room. "
