Center For Weight Loss Surgery CHI Saint Joseph East Bariatric Center

Dr. Steiner was so incredible nice and caring. He immediately made me feel at ease. His staff is also very helpful and friendly, and have always seemed happy to answewr any questions or concerns.
Dr. Steiner and his team are very adamant about aftercare. I was out of the hospital about a week before the RN called to check on me. I had never had that happen before!

Dr. Steiner has a wonderful attitude concerning both bedside manor and surgical competence. I would give him a 10+++ on a scale of 1-10!

Dr. Greenlee was great. He instantly made me feel comfortable and I have/had complete confidence in his skills as a surgeon. I would highly recommend Dr. Greenlee to anyone considering weight loss surgery.

The note below the posting window warns that completely positive surgeon reviews could be deemed suspicious, but never the less, I can't for the life of me think of anything negative to say about Dr. Thomas Greenlee. From the time I met him he presented himself as a warm, caring individual deeply dedicated to his patients. Time and many more visits has only solidified that impression. There is no question that he is an excellent surgeon with an uncomparable record in laparocsopic gastric bypass surgery, but added to that are his amiable attitude, honesty involving all aspects of the surgery, and superior after care. I would wholeheartedly recommend him to my dearest friend or closest relative.

I truly believe that I was blessed to find the best physician in the world to perform my surgery. Dr. Steiner is highly skilled, very supportive, and one of the most caring people I have ever met. He was very thorough in explaining the pros and cons of the procedure and made me feel very at ease about the process. I feel so much better now than I did before the surgery. I can do more with my children and have a better relationship with my entire family because I am no longer held back by my weight. My doctor is my hero and I highly recommend him to everyone. The entire staff at the practice is beyond wonderful. You're not just a patient there, but a friend. I love them all dearly.

Dr. Stiener is the most compassionate and
caring man. He is straight forward and honest
about your risk. But he says, he "will be with you all the way". I look forward to seeing him because he always makes you feel as if you are his only patient. He truly believes in WLS
and is an excellent surgeon. I am a big fan.
But I'm getting smaller ha! ha!

I met Dr Greenlee at a Introductory Seminar. He seemed very nice and understading to what people want, and need. Can't wait to have surgery by him.

My first impression of him was good. He was very open to listening to me and my husband and he actually had a personality and laughed with us. I had already dealt a lot with his staff when I finally got to sit him down and ask questions. I am grateful for his staff and the comprehensive program that they have put together. They really make you feel like you are not alone and there is tons of support from the dietitians to the exercise philologist and the front office staff. I really feel like each patient is their top priority. The Doctors and the staff take the surgery VERY seriously and don't want you to take this tool lightly. They are really great at motivating you any way they can. Overall great Doctor that is enhanced by a great staff!

8/30/04 - Went to seminar met all three surgeons - I was extremely impressed with all three they were kind curtious and caring there was no question at anytime that they seemed to good to answer or never once acted like they "WOULD RATHER BE SOMEWHERE ELSE" The complete staff was just sooooo very caring.
Dr. Green Lee was the surgeon who actually did my surgery He is Just the best. Can't say enough to describe how professional he is Bedside manner and all. I had no complications with my surgery and all is well and I have him to Thanks.(and GOD) I would Honestly recommend him to anyone. !!!

I liked Dr. Steiner from the first moment I met him, and knew he was the surgeon for me. He, as well as all the staff at Center for Weight Loss, has been great. Dr. Steiner was very honest concerning the risks of surgery, but at the same time very positive and reassuring. I would trust Dr. Steiner with any surgery I would have to face. The aftercare program has been awesome! They definitely don't do your surgery, take your money, then write you off. From the very beginning you are made aware that they are there for you for life. Dr. Steiner and staff are the best!

I fell in love with Dr. Greenlee the first time I met him at the seminar where all 3 surgeons were present to talk and answer questions. Now,, 4 weeks after preop I still feel the same way.. He is a very skilled,, caring surgeon,,, He has a great sense of humor. Great guy. The office staff is great,, all of them have been so patient and caring with me. I recommend Dr.Greenlee and all the surgeons and staff at Center for Weight Loss Center to anyone considering WLS. The aftercare program is great,, Very supporative and on the ball with everything.. On a scale of 1-10 I give them a 10.
