MUSC
"I like MUSC but feel that they need to work harder at communicating better and making sure the process runs smoothly. Lots of incorrect information was relayed and several nurses, doctors, secretaries failed to do their jobs resulting in delays and stress."

T. Karl Byrne
"My first impression of Dr.Byrne is that he tells it like it is and does not sugar coat things.rnHis office staff are all kind and will try to do whatever they can to help you get approved.rnFuture patients should know that no one will hold your hand through this process. You have to do your own research and be your own advocate when it comes to your insurance company. rnDr.Byrne stresses that aftercare is more important than the surgery itself. If you don't do the right thing and follow the directions given to you, you will be fat again (I told you, he tells it like it is).rnThe doctor has a very structured aftercare program including office visits, nutritional couseling, and several support groups.rnOverall, I would say that Dr.Byrne knows his stuff and will take care of you. He will give you the tool to help change/save your life but it's really up to you what happens.rnI would say that surgical competence is more important to me than a doctor who will stand at my bedside and hug me if I'm feeling blue.
