Peter Hixson
"Dr. Hixson and his staff are excellent! He is very kind and was very sympathetic to my concerns and very attentive to my needs. The results of the surgery were better than I expected! The hospital he is affiliated with is Crouse Hospital in Syracuse and the care I received there was amazing! I would highly, highly, highly recommend Dr. Hixson and Crouse Hospital."

"4/25/01 Spoke to Dr. Peters for the first time tonight. He called from his home! The first clue that he's not your usual doctor type. Found out he doesn't like golf! Clue number two! I actually had fun (a half hours worth!) chatting with him! That's all the clues I need! What a living doll!! (I really hope he blushes when he sees this!). I'm extremely happily married so don't think I'm getting a fatal attraction kind of thing here. I'll be calling his office tomorrow to make an appointment for my first consult. I feel thinner already! :-) 5/10/01 Had my first consult! My two sisters and I all want to have the procedure done and Dr. Peters actually let us all do our consult together. I'm sure he didn't anticipate how out of hand three sisters can be. But he managed to hold his own and we even let him get a few words in. We were with him for two hours!! You tell me of any doctor you have ever met that not only didn't make you feel second class because of your weight but actually cares enough to spend that much time with you. I was also impressed with his technique. He was so straight forward discussing the possible risks and side effects that you would think he was trying to talk us out of it. He holds no punches in making you understand that this isn't a walk in the park and that this is really major surgery and not to be taken lightly. (See! I really was paying attention Doc!) He really wants you to make an intelligent, informed decision. Although I hate waiting, he does insist on a second consult so that you have time to read the info he gives as well as reflect on the meeting. I can't wait until next Thursday so we can begin the next step. I'll keep you posted. 5/17 Had our second consult! Asbsolutely nothing has changed! We love Dr. Peters, we love Robbie, we want it done NOW! On a personal note, thank you to all of Dr. Peters patients that I've contacted. You've all helped me to confirm that I've chosen a great surgeon and really helped me to prepare for the horrors that lie ahead! I do love how each and every one of you have no regrets regardless of the post op pain you suffered. Bring it on!!!!!!"
