Saratoga Surgeon?
My mother had her gastric bypass with Dr. Baranov when he was still with Dr. Graber's practice in Utica/New Hartford. She's over a year out now and is doing really well. I am scheduled for RNY with Dr. Baranov on May 19. I have been to the info seminar and to my first consultation, and so far, I have nothing but good things to say about Dr. Baranov and the staff.
I had the RNY done with Dr. Baranov 11/06/2013, and although I haven't written a review, I would highly recommend Dr. Baranov and every last person who works with that program. Dr. Baranov is an amazing doctor, who takes the time with every patient to answer questions and solve problems. Not that I have any other surgeons to compare to, but his skills as a surgeon are incomparable. No joke, from the nutritionist, to the nurses at the office and hospital (post-op), EVERY LAST person is phenomenal at what they do, and the program is so well managed that you are set up for 100% success for your journey, no matter where the road takes you! Good luck!!
