Dr. Jay Jan anyone?

I was wondering if anyone had Dr. Jay Jan for their surgeon? I was just wanting to see how your experience was and any other input you may have. Thanks.

Dr. Jan performed my Lap RNY this last June.  I have been very impressed with him.  He is pretty soft spoken but he answers all of my questions fully.   He's an excellent surgeon.  The only complaint that I have and it is not with Dr. Jan, is their fellowship doctors.  There is one in particular that doesn't speak very clear english and it is hard to understand him.  I have also met Dr. Patterson.  She is very nice as well.  I hope that this helps.

My expreence with Dr Jan has been wonderful, he is very good about telling you everything you need to know and has a great bedside manner. Surgons tend to be crappy with talking patience but Dr jan was great. I to had trouble with the associate in the office that speaks broken english but he is getting better and seems to be a good Dr. 

I think he's a great surgeon.  He is very supportive and focused and has really worked with me and my issues.  I have no problem recommending him to anyone. Lori

I have my surgical consult with him on Monday... I can let you know how it goes.

Well I had my consult with Dr. Jan this morning.  Since, I don't have anything to compare against on his professionalism, I'll say that he met my expectations for a surgeon.  He reviewed my medical history gathered from my visits with legacy and made sure there werent any changes or new issues.  He then reviewed the procedure with me and the risks.  I asked him about the anantamosis (sp?) from the pouch to the intestine... he said they use a circular stapler rather than a linear or sewing it closed.  And then they use the linear stapler for the connection to the rouxlimb.  He seemed very knowledgable and to the point.  He didn't beat around the bush and give me a sales pitch.  He just told me what to expect and whats involved... and that's all I needed to hear.  Appointment lasted about 2 hours, watched a short procedural video for about 30 minutes, then met with a research assistant who wanted to talked to me the LABS2 study that was voluntary.  I went ahead and enrolled in it.  Then Dr. Jan came in and talk to me about 45 minutes.  After, I talked to the scheduler and they said they'll submit my info for insurance approval and call me to schedule a date after.

I also met with Dr. Jan this morning and agree - I had the same experience.
