Anyone hear of Dr. Patching in Sacramento?
I looked up Dr. Patching, he went to school at UCD and done his surgical res there. He currently is affiliated with Sutter General and Mercy Gerneral hospitals. If your interested in UCD's bariactric surgeons. Dr. Mohamed Ali and Dr. William Fuller are their current surgeons. I'm currently persuing the RNY at UCD. My first consult will be Oct. 31st. Maybe you should check into their program. They have excellent surgeons and UCD is a level 1 trauma center with cutting edge technology. I really like the hospital, I was well taken care of in Feb 2007 when I had my thyroidectomy there. Good luck on your journey.
I am still preop but I love Dr. Patching. His numbers are really good and he has never lost a patient. He really informs you on your procedure. His goal is to establish a relationship with you and be a Life Coach of sorts. I know there are a few other OH members that have used him and you can read some of his reviews. Good luck in your decision
