Dr Sadek and Staff are amazing!!! Wonderful people!!!! Being a new patient going through the process everyone has been nothing but supportive and helpful! Sheila is so sweet she worked hard to get me where I need to be in order to get my surgery approved by giving me a list of the musts before surgery. Maryann is a hoot! Passing out sample vitamins in the waiting room!!! Love her!!!! I have never felt uncomfortable or embarrassed about being in a bariatric weight loss office setting because the smiles on everyone's faces look right at your face nothing else!!! Everyone is warm and welcoming!!! I am looking forward to all my follow up visits and just popping in to get my monthly supplies....and a quick hug too!!!! :o)
Dr. Sadek is very professional, the office staff is always courteous and helpful. The process of dealing with the pre-surgery appointments is all clearly laid out for you. There is plenty of follow up post-surgery with monthly support group meetings. I would recommend Dr. Sadek to anyone considering any form of bariatric surgery.
From information meeting, initial consultation, surgery and post-surgery, I had confidence in his choice of Vertical SLeeve surgery and his expertise in performing my surgery. All pre and post surgery eating plans and prerequiste medical tests and doctor clearances were provided at the intake visit. I selected a surgery date that first visit and got busy scheduling the required doctor visits. I had time to review all information in the three months leading up to surgery. The Support group meetings were very beneficial both before and after surgery to ask questions and hear many individual experiences. Both my husband and I had vertical sleeve surgery with Dr. Sadek two weeks apart. Br
Best life changing decision for weight loss I've ever made four months post surgery and lost 45 pounds.
Dr.Sadek is an amazing doctor. He always makes sure that all my health and my progress is going well. His staff is also very kind and very patient. Him and his team have been nothing more than kind with me and my family. I recommend him to anyone that wants a bariatric surgery.
Dr Sadek is the most caring doctor I have ever met. His entire staff is helpful and very supportive of each patients needs. Going to see Dr. Sadek and having sleeve surgery has changed my life. Dr. Sadek fought my case with my insurance company because he believed in me and my health needs. He never gave up on me! From the very first visit, to my most recent appointment Dr. Sadek is still very caring and concerned. I've never met a doctor who cares about his/her patients so much. Through is process Dr. Sadek has sent me to several doctors to get approval for my surgery. I have to say everyone of the doctors he recommended is just like him. Everyone of them took their time, listened to my concerns and was willing to help me. I couldn't have asked for a better team of doctors! Surgery aftercare is made very easy under Dr. Sadek's care. Going to the best bariatric doctor in the world, Dr. Sadek, you will never feel alone, scared or unsure! I love Dr. Sadek and what he has done to help me get health in my life! GO TEAM SADEK!!!
I was seeing a nutritionist for about 6 months and only lost 15lbs and was starting my life long struggle with yo-yo dieting when she suggested I go and talk to Dr. Sadek. I was a little hesitant at first but decided to keep an open mind and go anyway. I met with Dr. Sadek with my husband (who was against the surgery prior to us going) and after our first meeting with Dr. Sadek who was honest, direct and easy to talk to decided it was the right decision for me. Dr. Sadek made every step of the process easy and made me feel comfortable and confident with my decision. Always available for any questions I or my husband had. The post-surgery care has been incredible as well. He cares not only about the weight loss but your overall health and personal goals. He offers support groups which he tries to attend regularly. I had my surgery on August 14th and to date have lost 36lbs. This surgery was the best decision I made and probably long term saved my life. So I Thank Dr. Sadek from the bottom of my heart.
At 28 years old I weighed in at 215 pounds. Not to my surprise I also found out that I had became a diabetic from being overweight. I knew it was time to do something. i just wasn't sure what since I had failed at every other attempt at weight loss. I researched bariatric surgery and came across Dr. Sadek and thank god I did!
I walked into his office scared, nervous, not sure what to expect, what questions to ask. The young lady at the front desk was exactly what I needed to calm my nerves even for a little. She greeted me with a big smile and helped me get through my paperwork.
My first impression of Dr. Sadek was that he was soft spoken, very calming. He sat down with me and went over EVERYTHING. The differences between procedures, the risks, which one has a better success rate, my history of obesity and the different steps I have taken to lose weight. But most importantly we went over what the right procedure for me would be. I took couple weeks to think it over and decided to get the Lap Band.
I had my surgery in March of 2011. Since then I have lost 85 pounds. Dr. Sadek made sure I knew the importance of not just eating right but also exercising. He went over with me what exercises would be more beneficial for me and what would put more strain on me. He went over support groups and where and when he holds them. I saw him once a month for a year to make sure everything was going the way it was suppose to and I that I was losing the right amount of weight. Now I see him about every 6 months.
To anyone possible looking to have bariatric surgery I would say to you that Dr. Sadek should be your number 1 choice. I would give him almost 5 stars and the only reason I am not is because of his office hours. They were inconvenient for me because of my work schedule. I think he is the best at what he does and would recommend him to anyone!
I had the gastric sleeve done on July 24, 2013. From my very first meeting with Dr. Sadek, I was comfortable with my decision to have the gastric sleeve. He took his time and answered all my questions. Dr. Sadek explained my options and let me decide on the best course of action for me and my health. He did not pressure me and assured me that I was making a good decision...given the fact I am obese, has high blood pressure, and diabetes. Every follow up visit was the same...professional and informative.
I also appreciated the fact that Dr. Sadek required clearance from multiple doctors prior to me having the procedure and the doctors recommended was also great.
On the date of my surgery, I was a bit nervous but after meeting with Dr. Sadek and the staff at the hospital, I was reassured that all is well. I gain met with Dr. Sadek one week post op and everything was going well. I am writing this review 6 weeks post op and believes that it was the best decision I could have made. Minus a little acid reflux and soreness, I have no complaints.
I would highly recommend Dr. Sadek and his staff to anyone seeking to have bariatric surgery.
