I have nothing bad to say about Dr.B or his staff. Dr. B is awesome, very caring and informative. Paula was great as well. I was visited in the hospital by her and Ann. As far as surgery went it went off with no complications and I'm still doing well 3 months later. I would recommend this office to anyone.

I have not met Dr. B. yet. However, I met with Paula, Receptionists and briefly with Nutritionist this past week. I have never met an office staff as nice and accomodating as Dr. B's staff. Paula (who I am sure is swamped with her work) took the time to answer my questions and even put my mother at ease. My elderly mother was interested and concerned about WLS. This organization seems very organized, patient and sensitive to the patient's needs. I can't say enough positive things about my first visit with Dr. B's staff especially Paula. She's an inspiration!

Very informative of all aspects of the process. His office staff: Jamie, Paula ,Toni and Ann are the best and have kept me going for the past 10 months while I waited for Aetna to come to their collective senses!! rnrnThe seminars and monthly support groups are full of information and people who are willing to share all of their experiences. rnrn

Dr. Bonanni is very nice and sincere. I got to like him more after I got know him. He explained both the RNY and DS with great detail and helped me decide which to chose.rnrnThe staff are very helpful, but overworked. The initial notebook about the surgery was tailored for RNY and not DS. They kind of fudged it and some of the data was not correct but the bulk of it was extremely important. I've been using it for six months now and intend to continue after the surgery.rnrnThe monthly support meetings are a wealth of information and very helpful. The before and after care programs are in my opinion excellent.rnrnI have personally found Dr. Bonanni, his staff and Abington Hospital very competent and extremely helpful.rn

The first time I met Dr. Bonnani he was very friendly and comforting. He made me laugh the entire time I was being examined. I met with him another time and he had the same sense of humor and very nice and comforting once again. His office staff were friendly, helpful and also comforting. rnrnThe only negative I can say so far is that I feel I am being left in the dark about what comes next after the test are all taken.

Dr. Bonanni and his staff were excellent. Although I only met with Dr. Bonanni once before the surgery his PA, Dr. Manning, was excellent. They prepared me for everything that I was going to experience and anytime I had a question his staff was always there to help. I would recommend Dr. Bonanni to anyone who is interested in WLS.

My first impression of Dr. Bonanni was that he was very nice and willing to take the time to answer my questions. He came across as a competent bariatric surgeon and put my mind at ease. Dr. Bonanni's office staff are wonderful! I have had a great experience with this practice and would recommend them to anyone considering surgical weight loss.

He's done over 1000 lap RNY's. Seems like a competent, professional, and friendly guy.

Dr. Bonanni is a very competent bariatric surgeon. My surgery went very smoothly. I was a patient of his when he was still in the Reading area. I can't say I was bowled over by his demeanor or manner. I felt he wanted to see as many patients as quickly as possible. As fortunate as I was to have had him for my surgeon, for all his expertise I felt he didn't want to take a lot of time to get to know me. I would try to speak with him at support groups but I felt he would look past me to find someone he really wanted to talk to. Be that as it may, he is a very experienced and competent surgeon. I was very glad he was there as my surgeon. I made a wonderful choice, both with surgery and surgeon.
