David May
"When I first met Dr May I was very impressed in just how comfortable he made me feel along with my friend that was with me. She had already had the surgery done at a different hospital but the more we talked we learned that Dr May had trained under her doctor. When we met with Dr May we had all types of questions for him and except for two he answered everything before we had a chance to ask. It was great he was so open, and gave us all the time we needed. He never made me feel rushed or stupid by asking questions. Prior to surgery we have to meet with a nutritionist, have a psychic evaluation, blood work and any other tests that my specialist feel are warranted. There is no support group right in this imediate area and he mentioned that he had been talking with some of his patients to get one started and my reply was maybe I would be that person. If I could be able to help someone else that would make my life even happier. Dr May emphasized how important it is to follow the aftercare program and that he is just giving me a tool to help lose weight succesfully, but I had to also do my part. He made sure he told me about every risk there was in having the surgery including death. So far I would rate him a 10 on a scale of 1-10. Of course 10 being the best. I feel more comfortable with a good beside manner along with surgical compentency. I feel if I was told I had to have Bypass surgery on my heart to save my life I would do it, so why not this. I found his staff to be cordial and helpful, but the one thing that did bother me was the fact that the Dr only does surgery for Gastric Bypass on Tuesdays and I'm not quite sure why that bothered me. At least he doesn't have an assembly line. When I go back for my second visit I'm sure I will add a lot more to this picture."
