"Dr Mailapur is one of those rare and precious doctors who realize that they are CAREGIVERS. He is genuinely concerned with your wellbeing and also concerned with the kind of care his staff gives. At every visit he asks if you were treated well by him and his staff and if you have any concerns with their care and treatment of you. That means a lot.rnrnHis office staff is very friendly and helpful.rnrnHe will NOT schedule an appt with you for a consult on WLS until you have been to one of the free seminars he gives. He is a real believer in patient education. At the initial seminar you receive a folder-full of educational information. At the initial consultation you also receive another book of information he has put together. After you have met with both he and his dietician Claudia- you take a test on the information regarding the diet to be certain you understand what they have told you. You also take another little test on the day of your pre-op visit. rnrnhave to say I was both impressed with his surgical skill and bedside manner. But most of all, I was impressed with the level of care he is determined to give. "
"I'm a nurse and I received the kind of care here that anyone would be pleased with. If I put on my call light for anything, the staff was RIGHT there. There were absolutely FABULOUS!"
