Thomas Umbach
"I can't say enough about Dr Umbach. He is great. I was very overweight over 400 lbs. I went to every Bariatric Surgeon in town and they told me I had to lose weight to get surgery. They seemed cold and impersonal. I have a huge hernia resulting from a C-section in 2009 and cannot get it fixed until I lose a significant amount of weight. The other surgeons seemed to know nothing about how to operate while avoiding the hernia. Dr Umbach did not do any damage to the hernia. And was able to easily band me. When you go to the office it is a nice clean environment. There are always people there sharing positive stories. I really feel like Dr Umbach gave me a second chance at life. Edited to add I ended up having to have Gall Bladder surgery March 9 2011 with Dr Umbach and that surgery also went great. And my Gall Bladder was not any fault of the original surgery. "

Desert Springs Hospital
"I was really worried about having my Band surgery at Desert Springs because I had never been there before. And have had some really horrible experiences at Hospitals in this town. This was very different they were so nice and accommodating. I felt that they new what they were doing. They were always asking me if I needed anything and if I pushed the call button someone came right away. The nurses and nurses assistants were very nice. It was the best hospital stay I had ever had which I didn't think was possible. "
