Cleveland Center for Bariatric Surgery St Vincents Bariatric Center


He was a very informative surgeon. Answered all questions I had. My husband had many, many questions and they indeed were all answered by Dr. Schreiber. He was not pushy at all. Explained everything completely and thouroughly. Office staff was great, and caring. Only one negative moment...while having a importand discussion with the nurse, and having many questions answered, one of the office staff started the VERY LOUD copy machine. This ticked me off. I thought it was very inconsiderate, however, all my questions were answered. (once the copy machine stopped)haha! But these people really care!! I will see them again in 10 days...

I believe Dr. Screiber really cares about his patients and is just as happy when we succeed!
I believe the same about his staff who works very hard to get you to the surgery... through it and past it!
They have a wonderfully rounded program... from pre-op to lifelong follow ups.
The staff very carefully explained the benefits and risks of surgery.
I would say that his surgical competence and bedside manner were both quite wonderful.

The day I met Dr. Schrieber, he was being paged to come to surgery, and was therefore in a hurry. He quickly assesed that I was a candidate for the surgery, and was VERY straightforward about the implications/complications of the surgery. I wouldn't say he was friendly or unfriendly, neither of which I especially care about. Competency is what I'm looking for, and he DID seem that. I've heard/read countless things about his and Dr. Sonpal's excellent bedside manner, so attribute his rather abruptness to his needed departure.

Dr. Schreiber was the most wonderful surgeon I could ask for. He was right there for me when I needed him and was easy to talk to..His office staff is just great I have seen alot of health care workers and they have by far the best staff all the way around!!! He should and does take great pride in how he and Dr. Sonpal have helped hundreds of people. The way they have the program set up is remarkable and I would have not went anywhere else!
