Dmitri Baranov

"Dr B. is awesome. What I came to appreciate most was his honest and straightforward approach with me. While losing weight to gain approval for surgery he was supportive but was also quick to point out that he knew I could be doing more. His subtle kick in the pants got me over the hump and he even thanked me after surgery for losing more weight so he did not have to do the open procedure. He treats his patients as individuals and I always feel he has our best interests in mind. When he moved to Saratoga it was a sad day for me but I'm excited that he continues to provide this service to others in the same position I was/am. I was 488 lbs the first time I met Dr. B. and headed for nothing but an early grave. Less than two years later I owe him a huge debt of gratitude as I weigh 226 lbs and, more importantly, am living an active lifestyle that even included running my first half marathon, at 47 years young, a few weeks ago. If you are considering bariatric surgery and have an opportunity to work with Dr. Baranov, do it! He can get the best out of you and will set you up to have the best chance of success."
