Has anyone had surgery in Charleston?
I have not had the surgery yet, but am going to Dr Stickler. Have have my consultation and dietition apt and have one more to go. I have been very pleased with the staff and the way I was treated. The are prompt with their apointment times and don't try to rush you in and out. So far I can say I am not dissapointed that he is the one I was referred to see and I am over 2 hours away from Charleston.
Linda,
I had surgery in Charleston on March 4. If you are planning to have the surgery, Charleston is definitely the place to go. I live 2 hours away and the trip was well worth the effort. One wing in the hospital is set up for bariatric patients. Dr. Shin did my surgery. He is wonderful. The staff at Medabolix is caring and professional. I have no regrets about going to Charlestion.
Linda,
I also had surgery in Charleston and Dr. Stickler was my surgeon. I also work at Women and Children's Hospital and we have a wing designated for Bariatric patients. I do not have any regrets about having surgery here or with Dr. Stickler. And it's not just because I work here either. Dr. Stickler's office staff are very helpful and they including the surgeons take their time with each patient. They also have a wonderful program with classes to help you after your surgery. Good luck. If any questions please feel free to e-mail me anytime.

Yes, I had my surgery Feb 19 2004. My doctor is Robert Shin and he is wonderful. He takes his time and answers any questions that you have. He is very straight forward and just tells the truth!!! I will give you my home address and phone number just in case you would like to contact me. I would recommend Dr. Shin because he is excellent!!
