Dr. Gluck chose wisely when he chose to name his operation "Life Without Limits". Obesity limits our lives in oh so many ways - many of which we don't even realize until we start to lose the weight. From tieing our shoes, to fitting in the seat at Wrigley, to squatting down to read a putt - I never realized all the little things I had lost.

My first impression was that he had a very kind smile. The office staff at Life Without Limits is extremely friendly, helpful and supportive. Dr. Gluck's program is completely structured and very well thought and planned out. He leaves no stone unturned. I felt completely comfortable with him and his staff.rn12/13/08rnI feel that Dr. Gluck gave me my life back. I am smaller than I was when I graduated from High School in 1987 and I feel 10 times better than I ever did; I can do things that I haven't done since I was a teenager. I thank Dr. Gluck from the bottom of my heart for giving me this \"tool.\" rnI was so impressed with Life Without Limits that I have referred family and friends who have also successfully gone through his program.

I like him right away and was impressed that on the first visit I was seeing him. The staff was very helpful and Tristan was wonderful. Dr. Gluck is very serious about knowing everything about your self and what questions you have, he can answer. He came to see me before surgery, did the surgery, came to the room three times and also called me two days after I was home. He is a 20 on a scale of 1-10. My life had been changed for the better!!!!

He was very understanding, non judgmental. The staff shows compassion and interest in you as an individual. Aftercare is stressed at each encounter. There are support people available all the time. Three days out of the hospital Dr Gluck called me at home to see how things were going. How refreshing. He was always concerned for my comfort.

My first impression of Dr. Gluck was positive. My impression did not change over time. When I attended my preop teaching class he made sure to see each of us. This impressed me because their was quite a few of us. My husband had a lot of questions and Dr. Gluck answered each one patiently. He made my husband feel at ease. That meant a lot to me. His staff was VERY nice. I am going by the questions on the side here and the next is does he emphasize aftercare? That is a HUGE YES!! He and his staff repeated this over and over! He did explain the risks. I would rate him overall as a 10! I would tell anyone that asks to go ahead and choose him! I had some gallbladder problems after surgery. I went to Dr. Glucks office and he sent me straight to the ER. He had me a pain shot ordered and he came straight over and took my gallbladder out. I was sooooo happy I picked him. Usually doctors are not concerned with your pain and he had ordered something for me before I even got into a room!!! I just love him!

My first impression of Dr. Gluck was that he is genuine. He looks you in the eye, REALLY actively listens when you speak, doesn't talk down and makes sure you have a solid understanding of this process and the surgery itself. His program at LWOL is the most structured I've seen. Which went a great deal in getting me to select him. That coupled with everything i've read about him, I feel like I'm in good hands.

My first impression of Dr. Gluck was he looked like the Fonzey from Happy days and he was a very cool dude. i still think he is a very cool dude but also think he is very passionate about what he does and how he wants to help people get through this surgery from start to finish. I had my surgery on Wednesday morning, left the hospital on early Friday morning and I recieved a phone call on Sunday morning from Dr. Gluck personally, checking on me. No other doctor has ever did that before. I say wow, what a cool dude. The staff at his office is awsome and I am not just saying this to get specail treatment I really speak from my heart on this.So far, this is the best thing I could have ever done for myself and family. I have delt with such great caring people. that just makes it even more awesome than anyone could ever explain. I would do it all over again, if I had to. I would give Dr. Gluck and his staff a 12 out 1-10. Very nice people and very caring.
