Fairfield County Bariatrics Bariatric Center

I can't say enough about Dr. Floch and his staff. He is a very caring doctor who's concern is truly about the patient. Dr. Floch's team approach to the WLS journey has been the most wonderful experience !!!! From dealing with the insurance company to handling which pre-op tests need to be completed, his staff were always there if I needed them. I especially want to thank Tangella ( not sure if that's the correct spelling), Elaine, Deb and Danielle for without their constant support and their accessibility, I don't know if I could have kept my dream alive.rnI also feel that the post-op support of nutritionist, mental health counselor and support group meetings are what makes Dr. Floch's practice so special. :<)

Dr. Neil Floch and his office staff, along with the staff at Norwalk Hospital, have made this experience much more pleasant and simple than I ever expected it could be.rnrnI was well-educated both pre-op and post-op. I know I am only at the beginning of my journey, but I am so very grateful to Dr. Floch and everyone who is with me for the ride. rnrnThanks to all involved, I feel hopeful about life and my future for the first time in a very long time. rnrn

Spent a lot of time talking with me and helping me with my decision for lap-band vrs rny.rnFelt very at ease.rnEveryone in the office is great and worked really hard to get my approval and I really appreciate it.

Dr. Floch was wonderful from the moment I met him at the informational seminar. He makes you feel at ease and gives you the feeling that he will be there to support you every step of the way. My initial consultation with him and then my pre-op consultation only further solidified my opinion of him. By the time I had my surgery, I was so confident that I was placing my health and my life (literally) in the best possible hands. He is an incredible surgeon and a fantastic human being!rnrnOne thing I really appreciate about Dr. Floch is that he made it clear from the beginning that WLS is just a tool, but that I will have to work and make life changes. He has emphasized throughout the whole process the need to be consistent with follow-up and the importance of the support group, which I fully intend to take advantage of.rnrnI don't feel like I was just another source of income, but that I am a person that is cared about. I will succeed because I want to, but my success will come easier because of the support and encouragement of Dr. Floch and his team!rnrnI think that the only thing I could say as an area that needs improvement is when it comes to the office staff's handling of paperwork. Although this was only my experience, and others may have had a different experience, I found myself having to chase down paperwork from other health care providers (test results, letters of recommendation, etc.) that I knew had already been sent. It seems like many test results just disappeared. There is only one woman in the office, that I know of, who handles all of this, so I think that might have something to do with it. I was determined though, so I stayed on top of everything and kept the process moving. I can honestly say that this did not ruin my experience at all!

my surgeon is the best he was caring .wonderful bed side manner things were explanned well no delays in getting ready for the lapband he also took out my gallbladder i can not say enough about him rnhe has given me my life back thanks rn dr floch deb cole

My first impression of Dr. Floch was good. My imoression of him has only gotten better with time. The office staff is fantastic. I would recommend him to anyone who is interested in having bariatric surgury. He is very good in aftercare. He sees you often after surgery. <y overall rating of him is very high.

Dr. Neil Floch was wonderful from the moment I met him. His practice requires you to attend a Weight Loss Surgery Seminar before you consult his office. This seminar is where I first met \"Doc Floch\". His presentation was thorough and honest. All the information was given in a realist perspective. Nothing was sugar coated and all the risks were explained in detail as were all the steps of both Gastric Bypass and LapBand surgery. During the presentation I felt that he was only talking to me. He made eye contact with every person in that room (there were probably more than 30 of us). He took time after the presentation to meet with any people that had questions or concerns. At my first appointment, he remembered me! I couldn't believe it. He not only made me feel appreciated, but that he took a more personal interest in those who seek his assistance. He was wonderful in our first consult, even with my husband who is normally reserved to himself. I have every confidence in the surgeon I have chosen and can't wait for the rest of my life to begin as a loser because of a winner doctor like Dr. Neil Floch. Update: I have undergone surgery and wanted to add that without all the after care that the office provides, I might be completely lost. The support offered by the PA's, Doctors, as well as the Psychotherapists and other patients has been truely a gift. I have made so many friends and have come a long way already. I just can't stop saying thank you!

When I met Dr. Floch, he made the consultation very informative. He explained the procedure in detail along with answering all my questions and concerns. After the first consult, I knew that I would be in the best of hands. From the moment I met Dr. Floch and his staff to the surgery and post op visits, they were always there to help me continue onto a life long change towards weight loss.rnIt has been 3 years and I live in Georgia now, still maintaining my weight loss. In August of this year, I had an abdominalplasty (tummy tuck) and for the first time was able to vacation in Florida wearing a 2 peice on the beach. Life is truly a Blessing...Thank you.

Dr. Craig Floch and his team was great. I still feel like they are still apart of my life. Dr. CraigrnFloch continues to check on my progress. I highly recommend him.

My first impression of D. Craig Floch was that he was very intelligent, professional and very confident. I researched different surgeries and different doctors for four years and as i soon as i met Dr. Craig Floch i knew he was going to be the doctor to perform my surgery. He only proved to become better as time went on. His staff is AMAZING!!! They are ALWAYS there for you and they do ANYTHING and EVERYTHING they can to make you comfortable. There was nothing that i disliked. Future patients should just go talk to him. THEY WILL LOVE HIM!!! They aftercare program is incredible. they have given me access to everything that i have needed. support groups and nutritionists and Mary Ziller. He was sensitive to my feelings but very professional and kind about the reality. Overall, i rate Dr.Floch and his whole staff EXCELLENT!!! THEY ARE ALL VERY COMPETENT, CARING, AND JUST ALL AROUND WONDERFUL PEOPLE!!! In my eyes, surgical competence and beside manner are equally important and they have definitely proven they are capable of both!!!
