Bariatrics and Medical Weight Loss North - Community Health Bariatric Center
She was very nice and gave out alot of infomation the first meeting.
It never did she is a very caring doctor and does not things go when she feels there may be a complication.I ended up in the hospital 5 times my firsr and had 25 endoscopes whuch she felt really bad about but it was not anything that she had done.
A little different sunce the very first time I went there they offic staff seem to be in a hurry alle.
I can not think of one negative thing.. Other than the office being so busy on Tuesdays.
She is great.
Alot it is explained to you thourghly and if you leave there not understanding something then you should of asked. Most people have been on the internet doing research so nobody should be in the dark.
Yes, the only thing was in my case I had such trouble eating that I pretty much had to eat whatever I could keep down.
Very thoughly
I would rate Dr. Jones a perfect ten she is great.
I think both surgical competence and bedside manner were handled about the same.VERY GOOD...
She is a wonderful, person.
No changes of my impression, just great admiration for the woman
Office staff is incrediable as is the whole hospital.
The only thing I like the least, is the amount of time we have to wait in her office.
Just that she is caring and personalbe.
A great deal of after care.....keeps her eye on us.
Yes....the bariatric unit is great on pre care and after care. No complaints
All risks were discussed prior to surgery
on a scale of 1-10.....she is a 10
Both....no complaints
Dr. Ditslear is a wonderful Dr. He was very good in telling you the risk involved in the surgery, but was very supportive. I would rate him a big 100 out of 100.

My first impression of Doctor Jones was that she seemed so knowledgable and understanding. She really put my mind at ease at the consultation. She went through the whole procedure and said that she stopped counting once she had done her 1000th surgery. She addressed all the possible complications and that this is a tool. I left with such a new found hope. I'm so thankful for her everyday.
The office seemed a busy at times but from my consult to sugery only took 11 weeks. After surgery, the nurses were very timely in answering my calls and sometimes even answered the phone on my first call!
After care program is awesome. The nutritionist are great and I love the support groups. I would definately recommend attending those starting while you are still in the deciding phase. Very informative.
I truely feel that Dr. Jones is top notch in the field and I would recommend her in a heart beat to everyone. She's a A+++++++ in my book. She had great bedside manner and is very patient with any questions.

Dr. Ditslear performed my Lap RNY on 9-30-03 without a hitch. Surgery went beautifully and my scars are very small and will not be noticiable. My first impression was correct- Dr. D. is very kind and soft spoken but now I know he is also an AWESOME surgeon!!
I met with Dr. Ditslear and found him to be very patient, kind and soft spoken. He was very informative and answered all my questions. I felt very comfortable with him and I look forward to having him as my surgeon. On a scale of 1-10..I would rate him a 10 for his initial visits..

Because of conflicts with the doctor's schedule and my schedule I didn't meet Dr Jones until minutes before my surgery. I knew I wanted her to do my surgery because of the information gained from the internet and from the information gained from my brother(the doctor).
The meetings I had with her partners and the doctor's staff left me feeling comfortable enough to go through with this surgery. I had never gone thru any major surgery in 49 years so this was a big step for me.
Dr Jones caught me by surprise because I had nurses running in and out of my room before surgery. Dr Jones came in and introduced herself asked if I had any questions on anything and the next time I saw her was after surgery.
Dr Jones is very good doctor. Every time she checked on me in the hospital she was willing to spend the time needed to answer my questions. The follow-ups I've had, she has spent the time with me and my page of questions. I believe in Dr Jones. I've had little problem with my surgery and her "bedside manner" has been superb.
I would recommend ONLY Dr Jones for this type of surgery.
Dr. Jones is extremely knowledgable. She is very friendly and short. : )
My impression only improved after my first visit.
Dr. Jones's office staff is extremely friendly and helpful! They always greet me with a smile and act like I'm the only patient they have (clearly they have lots of patients).
What I liked most about Dr. Jones before I even met her was her reputation. She has an excellent reputation in her field. She is very professional and gave me a lot of confidence!
Future patients should make sure to do their homework. Don't settle for less. If you have to pay out of network do it! This is a very serious surgery and you should only let the best work on you!
Dr. Jones and her staff are excellent about follow up. The Dietician's provide their email addresses if you have any questions and
encourage you to use it. Dr. Jones wants you to be successful so she really emphasizes good nutrition and frequent follow ups. The aftercare program is very unique...they really do care what happens to you after surgery! You didn't go through this to fail!
Dr. Jones was very truthful about the risks involved in surgery. She went over everything verbally and then provided all the risks in writing.
I would rate Dr. Jones a perfect 10!
Usually hospital's fail when it comes to bedside manner. The Nurses are usually so understaffed that they don't have the time to give their patients the attention they wish they could give. At St. Vincent's EVERYONE is attentive. The match a perfect 10 with Dr. Jones! I honestly don't have a single negative thing to say about my surgery, my surgeon, or the hospital staff!
When I met with Dr. Jones for the first time, I was very pleased. She seemed like a genuinly caring person. Like she cared about me as an individual and not just another patient. I have full confidence in her and can't wait to let her preform my surgery.
