"What a lovely, intelligent, caring human being--and a very fine surgeon. I cannot imagine having gone through this with anyone else.rnrnHe went out of his way to clear up a medical glitch that would have held up my surgery (contacted the other doctor, got clearance, and called me that evening in another state to tell me it was a go). rnrnHis staff was also helpful, caring, and quite knowledgeable. I was very impressed with the entire bariatric program at Albany Medical Center, and would advise anyone to go there. Aftercare is an important part of the program.rnrnMy experience was excellent."
