Frank Veninga
"I liked Dr. Veninga as soon as I met him. I like a doctor with warm hands:) He took his time explaining WLS. He wants to specialize in WLS exclusively. With WLS there is the potential not only to help patients loose weight, but also to heal many of the co-morbidities that WLS patients suffer from. With general surgery, you go in to fix a specific problem, ie. 1 surgery = 1 cure; with WLS 1 surgery = any number of cures depending on the type and number of comorbidities. In short there can be more healing through WLS than through general surgery, and thus a more profound effect on the future health of his patients. There's not anything about him so far that I don't like. He did mention aftercare, but I have not gotten into specifics with his office about it yet. He did go over the possible risks of surgery and was willing to answer any questions I had. So far I would rate him as excellent, after all I'm willing to place my Life in his hands! I have met many doctors that have been fully qualified and competantly trained in their specialties that had No Bedside Manner, I stay Far away from them! If a Doctor cannot be bothered to show that he cares for his/her patients, I find one that does! I can update info about aftercare once I am post-op."
