"This was one of the best hospital experiences I have ever had. EVERYONE was so nice. They went out of their way to make us comfortable and never acted like we were an inconvienence. I highly recomend ETMC."

"My first impression of Dr. Babineau was that he was a quiet, serious, and patient person. Those impressions stayed the same throughout the consult. He did a very good job of explaining the procedure he performs, complications and average results. He did not try to "sales pitch" you, just gave you the information and let you know it is a personal decision only you can make. I was most impressed with the fact he did not shy away from my "hard questions", gave clear and direct answers on his personal experience, mortality rate, etc. His staff is very nice and all are good listeners. He did not go into aftercare at this point, other than to emphasize the importance of the success depending on your participation (exercise and proper eating habits) but I know from his information packet that he has appointments with you for 2 years after the surgery. I feel surgical competence by far is the most important factor when choosing a physician and I felt comfortable with his knowledge/experience. Bedside manner is a plus if your physician can joke around and be easy going, but, not all people are like that...so I feel his bedside manner is quiet but sincerly interested, informed, and competent. The only negative thing about this situation is it is a 2 & 1/2 hour drive for me. I will let everyone know if I run into any other negative aspects."
