I just wanted to thank all my patients who have been asking and looking for me these past few months. Your kind words and wishes have been very much appreciated!
I am getting ready to re-open my practice in Raleigh North Carolina and wanted to let anyone who is interested know that this is soon to happen.
Most of all I miss helping people in their battle against obesity and its devastating health problems. I am looking forward to being available to see patients in the near future. More information will be posted soon.

So far, he seems okay. He did a Lap Band for my sister-in-law and she's doing good. I have to have ahernia repair along with the RNY and he puts me at ease when we talk. His office staff is wonderful. I'll leave the rest for later, when I have dealt with him more.
I will say that he is the reason I quit smoking. I smoked for 26 years and he will not operate if you smoke.

Dr. Mann is wonderful. I have seen him twice since my surgery and I would recommend him easily. Everything is going good. I have advanced to Stage 3 and I have 78 lbs. to reach my goal. I would say his surgical competence and bedside manner are great. He does take a little bit to loosen up with you but then he's great.
I just had my first appointment with Dr. DeMaria. I also met with the nutritionist, Patrick, and the psychologist, Kelli Friedman. I was very impressed with each one of them. Dr. DeMaria was so patient and thoughtful. He took his time and talked with me and allowed me to ask all the questions I needed to ask. Patrick was really helpful in walking me through what I would be eating after the surgery and how my eating habits would need to change, and Dr. Friedman was easy and comfortable to take to!!! I highly recommend Dr. DeMaria and this Weight Loss Clinic. I am now waiting for my surgery date and my next appointment with D4. DeMaria.
I love Dr. Mann! He is SO sweet. Very kind, gentle and takes time to talk with you. He did my endoscopy last week, and I didn't even have a sore throat!
The first time I saw Dr. Mann was after he did the endoscopy. I was a bit groggy from the anesthesia but he came across as very caring. I did not see him again until last week. He was very patient with all my questions and answered them in language that I could understand. I have not seen him at his office in Greenville. Dr. Mann and the other doctors in Greenville do a sort of satellite program in Rocky Mount, NC through Nash Hospital. I would prefer to have my surgery there but because of my insurance, I will have to have it at Pitt Memorial in Greenville, thus I have not had much interaction with his staff in Greenville. The staff in Rocky Mount are terrific. Overall I am very pleased with him.
Dr. DeMaria,
He is a great doctor. The office staff was great too. The wait time is what I have to say I liked least. After surgery he said I will see less of you next time. He also saw him 4 months out and he said I was doing wonderful and told my mother which is another patient that she should follow my lead. We do have aftercare and follow ups with nutrition and pysch at 3 weeks, 3 months, 6 months, and 1 year. Then yearly visits to follow up. He did discuss the risk of surgery, but said at my weight I was ideal for surgery. I rate my overall experience as excellent. I think the surgical competence and bedside manner were both great. I really had a great experience and would do it all over again. I want to live life and not sit on the side line watching.
