Fairfield County Bariatrics Bariatric Center
I was referred to Fairfield County Bariatrics (FCB) by my nutritionist, Nancy Murphy. One quick note about Nancy...She is well seasoned and informed about both pre and post operative bariatric nutrition. I recommend her to anyone interested in finding a good and caring nutritionist. NOW FOR FCB: Pre-op, I went to many of the informational seminars. I wanted to really know if this group was for me. I wanted to know that not only would I have a good surgeon, but one who would be there as I journeyed down the path to regain my health. Long story short? I FOUND JUST THAT! The seminars gave me the opportunity to see all 3 surgeons talk about Gastric Bypass as well as the Lap Band. I was very impressed by each speaker: Dr. Neil Floch, Dr. Craig Floch and Dr. Tim Ehrlich. They are a caring team of surgeons who have only their patients best interest and health in the forefront of their minds. It is my opinion that Fairfield County Bariatrics has THE MOST COMPREHENSIVE BARIATRIC PROGRAM in the STATE of CT! The education they offer starts from the very first seminar we are required to attend, prior to our consultation. At those seminars, they inform us about each surgical procedure and touch on the post operative experience as well, letting us know that WE are an integral part of our recovery. HERE IS THE GOOD NEWS about FCB's program...They require each patient to see a nutritionist pre-operatively and encourage us to continue that education post-operatively. They also offer regular support group meetings each month. Those support group meetings are facilitated by a psychologist who specializes in eating disorders and bariatric "recovery". Their office staff: I have to begin with their PA, Danielle who is a consummate professional with a caring heart. She is always there to answer any questions we might have. As a matter of fact, the entire office staff is always willing to help...being only a phone call away. So, for me, the decision to choose FCB as my surgical team, was a no-brainer. Top notch in my book.
I have know Dr Floch for years. He is a compasionate and kind person! He is open and honest and wants his patients to know everything about the surgery he performs. He goes into great detail on the risks and benifits, and will spend as much time with you as you need! Dr Floch is completely thorough in his testing, and there are MANY! He will help you every step of your journey to a happier, healthier life.
All of the staff at Floch surgical reflects his care. ~WLS site says no person can be the "best" at all aspects.... they are wrong... Dr Floch is!
my first impression of him was very favorable. since i work in the operating room, i know that he's very competent. his ofice staff has been very helpful. my experience in the hospital was very positve. everyone there was professional and caring. again, since i'm used to the hospital setting, i was constantly looking for anything that i could interpret as negative or un-professional. i found nothing that would even come close to that! dr. floch, the p.a.'s, the nurses, aides, and anethesia staff were all extremely efficient, caring, and competent in their positions. post-op, i was given specific instructions for both the time i spent in the hosp. and for home. i called dr. floch's office a few days post-op with a couple a questions, and i was called back in a short amount of time. i would recommend this surgeon and this hospital to anyone considering lap-band surgery. 4 stars!!! nancy gentili
I was a little nervous when I went for my consultation with Dr. Neil Floch. I was suprised that he looked so young, but he quickly put me at ease. His staff was superior. I did think I should have more aftercare instructions. The hospital staff seemed confused with my care and this worried me.
Dr. Neil Floch is great. He answered all my questions and some I hadn't even thought of. He is caring and has a great personality and outlook. He is very supportive.

My first impression was Great! I thought he was going to discourage me and call me crazy and brush me off, but he did everything al contrair. The office staff was friendly and helpful, honestly more than I expected them to be. All The information I needed to be ready before and after surgery was readily available. I am still about 2 eeks prior to surgery but thus far Dr. Floch and his staff have an A+.
When I was waiting for approval from the insurance I contacted the office and misunderstood something Danielle told me and said something that made me probably sound like a Jerk ( although it was not my intention ), but she came through like a champ and just talked to me and let me understand I had misunderstood. Thanks! If eveyrthing goes as it has been going, I expect everything to be awesome!
my first impression of my doctor was a great one.he was extremely thourogh with explaining everything to me not skipping a single detail.The office staff are very supportive and helpful as well.i Highly reccomend Dr.Floch because of his great ability to make patients feel comfortable and well informed at all times.
