 I used Dr. Gorospe in Aug of 2007 and so has a coworker of mine. I would recommend him anytime of the day. He has moved around from different hospitals so I don't' know where he is practicing at currently. The reason he moves around is because he is the type of doctor that likes to run the show and lets face it, sometimes when you're a hospital your peers don't like it especially when your not the boss! LOL 

That doesn't change anything with him being a competent doctor!

I used Dr. Joe Bob Kirk at New Beginnings, he practices out of Bailey Medical Ctr. in Owasso, Dr. Kirk, his staff, the hospital and hospital staff go above and beyond to provide the best care in the area. He works along with the doctors from Surgical associates of Tulsa, a great group of docs. I worked with my surgeon for three years atSt. Francis and the whole group is very caring and patient friendly. I can't say enough about Bailey Medical Ctr., it is very small and a wonderful experience. Well worth checking them out.

Dr. Gorospe was my surgeon, i was sleeved on 12-27-2010     I would highly recommend Dr. Gorospe. He is very passionate about wls and the affect it has on peoples lives. He told me going into surgery that my left side would be sore due to the fact that this is the side the stomach was removed and as soon as i woke up from surgery, if it wasn't for that one spot on my left side, i would have never known i had surgery. I have not one time been sick...the ladies in his office have been very helpful if i have had any questions.
My mom went with me to my first consutation with Gorospe and he sat in the room and answered her questions for an hour and a half and when we left, she said "i believe he would have set there another hour and a half if i had more questions"
I know two people who have had the bypass with gorospe, one had the band with him and one person who had the bypass done by another surgeon, used gorospe to fix her problems she had. Everyone i know would also recommend him.
Have you been to his seminar?
and gorospe is in Broken Arrow now and does the surgery in Muskogee

 You can look him up online and get a report on malpractice. Also, you can look on oscn.net and find out if people have sued him and won. I am using Dr. Fisher in Tulsa. That's how I check him out. Plus, I asked my general doctor. Good luck.

 I'm currently going through a 90 day program my insurance requires me to do to have surgery with Dr. Gorospe, so far they whole staff has been great. The seminar was informative and the staff have been great in getting me setup for all the things insurance requires before approval.   

Nothing but good things so far.

I used Dr. Fisher with Surgical Associates and love him.   He was kind and care and has a great staff.  I have a friend who used Dr. Gorospe with no complaints.   I think you have to find the surgeon that you are most comfortable with.  Take your time and check several out.   Good luck with the process.

Dr G did my surgery in November 2008. He is a wonderful surgeon and I would highly recommend him. I lost 175 and made my goal in 12 months and have not had any complications. He is a very compassionate man and will spend time with you to answer any questions you might have,

Good Luck!
