"I really liked this hospital. I especially liked the chaple on the ground floor & the Pianist in the foyer. When I was up & walking after surgery they gave me something to look forward to & motivate me."
"I cannot tell you enough about Dr Rumsey.He is at the very first a very warm and direct man. He is thorough in his evaluations of his patients and their specific situations. He answered all of my questions, even the very silly ones, with patience and knowledge.
His office staff is also wonderful, helpful & patient. They fully understand the anxieties & frustrations of going through this process and were always there to help with the hurdles, be they paperwork or moral support.
DR Rumsey works very hard to ensure the success of his patients. This means he seems a little strict on the pre surgery weight loss & conditioning. I know that because of the time I spent preparing for this surgery physically & mentally It was a success.
Aftercare is the other side of success. In order for the surgery to be an enduring success aftercare & post op diet rules need to be followed scrupulously. He was very upfront about this. The program they have is very structured and set up in such a way that it works wether you reside locally to his office or very far away.
Dr Rumsey is rated at a 10++++++ I couldn't have asked for a better surgeon, or a warmer bedside manner. And that isn't just the drugs contributing to the warm & fuzzy feeling.When I saw him a couple of months post op, when his job was "done", he was just as nice & still willing to answer my questions & take the time to evaluate me. I understand that all of the surgeons at Pacific bariatric are great, but I think Dr Rumsey is simply fabulous. If you have any questions at all about my experiences with him, Pacific Bariatric or Scripps Mercy Hospital , please feel free to email me at [email protected]."
