Michael A. Snyder

"1/6 Saw Dr. Snyder at six months. He made me feel very good about where I am and how I'm doing. He's super busy these days, support group is huge. I think it's worth the wait, but I'm also grateful that I found him when I did. Some people have surgeons who cut corners and claim that things like aftercare don't really matter. These people need a Dr. Snyder. He knows that the surgery is only the first step and that we need follow up the rest of our lives. You won't find a more dedicated, caring man. Call and get to a lecture right away. You can always change your mind later, but get this first step out of the way. Email me anytime for more details. 7/30 I am almost six weeks post-op. I first met Dr. Snyder in January at one of his lectures. My first impression was that he was a very energetic and committed surgeon. That impression has not changed. I don't know where he gets his energy, but it never seems to flag. My surgery went over very well. I had some minor complications post-op and we're still working on those. However, he has been available and supportive through the roadbumps. I must say that these are MINOR complications and I was prepared for the possibility. Dr. Snyder's staff has to keep up with him and for that alone they deserve a medal. <p> Dr. Snyder emphasizes aftercare and has a very proactive patient base. The support groups are patient run and happen twice a month. This is very helpful for pre-ops and recent post-ops. <p> Dr. Snyder is the most available doctor I've ever heard of. He gives patients his pager number, answers email and makes time when you need him, even if you aren't scheduled. <p> The only thing I've noticed recently is that Dr. Snyder is VERY busy. This is good and is a reflection of how much time and concern he has for his patients. If you are new going to him, be patient. You may wait a little in his office, but you won't have to wait a year for the appointment. One other piece of advice: Don't be afraid to slow Dr. Snyder down and ask him all your questions. He goes very fast, but he will take time for you and all your questions. It also helps both doctor and patient for the patient to be fully informed. <p> You are in good hands with Dr. Snyder."
