Dr Irgau is a kind gentle man. He was very informative at our first meeting and always patient with my numerous questions and \"why's\". My first post op app is Nov 30th.rnrnHis office staff was always polite and helpful. That to me is important.

When I first met Dr. Irgau, he tried to talk me out of having the Lap-RNY because of my history of heart disease and having used aspirin and Plavix for so many years. He was afraid of bleeding and ulcers. I told him I was willing to take the increased risk in order to decrease my chances of ever gaining the weight back, which will kill me just as quick, if not quicker. He wanted me to consider the LapBand. Ultimately, I chose the RNY.

I have nothing but great things to say about Dr Irgau. He was very understanding and explained everything in great detail. His office staff has worked with me every step of the way for my clearance appt's, only one left.

My first impression of him was ........he's kind,caring and very informative, and overtime that did not change Dr.Irgau is a very,very nice guy he cares and it shows, his staff is kind and attentive and they make a great team in my opinion, he answers questions in ways that you understand he makes direct eye contact which is important,he really emphasizes aftercare and seems to have a well structured aftercare program which I will soon experience, overall I rate him and his staff as excellent, and I'd refer them to anyone in this area considering bariatric surgery.

I think the Chrias staff is wonderful. Dr. Irgau was very easy to talk to, I was really nervous when I first went to the consultation but when I left I knew that GBS was for me. The office staff was really friendly and there were a couple of people that had had the surgery also and looked amazing.

Dr Irgau was great... He has a wonderful bedside manner and answers all of your questions with an straight forward response...I would recommend Dr Irgau to anyone having the weight loss surgery.

He was exellent. He listened and answered all the questions I had. Even when I was a bit confused he helped me understand and explain everything fully. He even drew diagrams of what the different surgeries were so when I chose, I knew I was making the right decision. I would recommend him to anyone considering this lifestyle change.

I met with Dr. Peters for my initial consultation. My first impression of him was a very positive one. Dr. Peters was very informative and honest. I felt very confident in his knowledge of the procedure and his ability to perform the procedure.

My first impression of Dr. Irgau was one of a very personable, knowledgable, professional, and friendly doctor. The office staff was really nice, the only thing I would have changed was the lenght of time it took before getting a response to my concerns. Dr. Irgau did emphasize that it was important to follow the liquid diet for 4wks after my surgery. I would say that my overall experience with this office was excellent. I would refer anyone to here because I was treated with love and care.

Dr. Peters is in practice with Dr. Wynn and Dr. Irgau. I have only met Dr. Peters and Dr. Irgau (both male),however a friend had her RNY done by Dr. Wynn (female) and loved her. I met with Dr. Peters on June 22nd and my surgery was two days ago, on August 24th. My surgery was at St. Francis Hospital in Wilmington, DE and I was really impressed witht the facility and the staff. At least three of the nurses who took care of me had had gastric bypass and the whole bariatric ward has recently been renovated to include larger beds, chairs, showers, etc. The nurses know their stuff! One of the things I was really impressed about the was the fact the there are always two doctors in on the surgery. So Dr. Wynn assisted Dr. Peters...makes you feel a bit better knowing you have TWO of the best looking after you, doesn't it? The only complaint about the doctor I had was his office...he's NEVER on time. The first time he had an emergency and was three hours late for my appt. and last time he was 1 1/2 hours behind. It's a drag, but if I was on the emergency side, I'd want the best care, too, so I can understand.
