Dr. Broussard is very direct and honest about what to exspect and what the best options are for you. This impression did not change as I went through surgery. The staff in the office is friendly and very helpful. They continue to care about you after surgery, and want to help you succeed. I would rate Dr. Broussard as excellent. His surgical competence was excellent.

My first impression of Dr. Broussard was that he had a passion to help people fight obesity. He was very straight forward and did not sugar coat anything. I liked this very much about him. In this journey I want to know exactly what I need to do to get healthy!

I met with Dr. Broussard this week for my first visit. He was very personable and answered all my questions. I left his office with a very good feeling and with all the confidence I need to make this journey a success!
I might add that my oldest daughter who is a patient of his also was with me and made it all the better! Both of my daughters are a huge support and should make this life change much easier for us all.

I've now had my surgery on April 15, 2009. So far all is going well. I do so think Dr. Broussard is the best! He always has a smile on his face and seems so pleasant. I truly believe he is all about helping obese people. You can tell that he really cares and I'm so thankful for that.

I am so glad I had Dr Walton. The office staff is very friendly and so supportive. And Dr Walton Said that this is a long term care just like your family dr that way we will be able to accomplish the goals and take care of any problems we might have. He told me of the risk and emphasized the after care was a must. I know with Dr Walton and All the staff and Support groups you can accomplish the goals that is set for you and with you. I am glad that I Went to the Weight Wise Center.rn

Dr. Toby Broussard appears to be very knowledgable, sincere and caring. He demonstrates a lot of passion regarding the benefits of weight loss. I feel very comfortable in talking with him about my concerns and asking questions. He really puts you at ease. His staff is friendly courteous and busy. They show compassion and excitement with the healthy possiblities in my future. I have not found anything yet that I least like. I recently had a colonoscopy performed by Dr. Broussard and was very impressed with him and his staff. They took away alot of my anxiety and was eager to discuss my future procedure, anwering lots of questions. Dr. Broussard's staff offers a strict aftercare program as well as lots of support. I would rate him more than satisfcatory on everyhting up to this point. While I strrongly believe that surgical competence is extremely important, Dr. Broussard has a great bedside manner as well.

I went and consulted with Dr. Broussard, he was very polite and respectful, and put me at ease. Dr. Brossard talked with me explaining about the lap band and the sleeve surgeries, answering any and all questions I had, never rushing to get through the consult. At the end of the consult I was given telephone numbers e-mail addresses and told if I had any questions I could call or e-mail him. And yes he did promptly respond within a day to an email I sent him. Dr. Broussards staff is very caring , helpful, and went the extra mile in getting all my appointments and test scheduled in a timely manner. Everytime I'm at weightwise I'm always given the highest respect and taken care of very promptly. I Feel very confident in Dr Broussard doing my surgery and having his staff assist me in my weight loss.

I attended a weight wise seminar on Sept 9th, 2008. At first I was very apprehensive and felt like the surgeon was going to be out of my ball park. Mr Broussard is very blunt and straight forward, but if your not ready to hear the \"truth\" from someone that cares, than maybe you should look else where. He is not going to surgar coat things just so you will become his patient, he wants you to see and believe in yourself. He truly cares about his obese patients and willing to do anything to see them succeed. I was the last one to leave the seminar and it was well past 10 PM. Dr B answered all of my questions and made me feel confident in the decision I was making to choose weight loss surgery.rnrnDr B's staff at the front desk at the seminar took the time to answer my questions and get the information packet to me and answer any and all questions.rnrnI look foward to having my surgery with DR B. I believe he informed me well at the seminar, gave us the Pros and Cons of having the surgery, and basically telling you like it is. If your not willing to put 110% into you losing weight than don't bother to have the surgery. He can only provide you a tool and the rest is up to you.. He will be there to support you but don't try to BS him, because he will see right through you.rnrnGood luck in whatever decision you make.rn

My first impression of Dr. Broussard was pretty neutral. He was professional but personable. Over time, I've seen him as more laid back. However, he is straight forward with his recommendations and what I could expect from my surgery. His patient care staff are efficient and helpful. Some of the office staff seem a little overwhelmed by how busy his office is. Dr. Broussard seems to have to \"catch up\" whenever he comes into the exam room. I know he sees a lot of patients but as a healthcare provider myself, I try to familiarize myself with my patient's chart before entering the exam room. He and his staff - psychologist, dietician, nurse, etc - all heavily emphasize continued aftercare and it is structured. He did address the risks of surgery. As a matter of fact, I had to have my gall bladder removed 4 mos after surgery and he let me know that having my gall bladder removed may not solve all of my nausea and pain problems. I would give him an \"A\" overall. I have recommended him to other people. I think that surgical competence is highly important but if a doctor has a horrible bedside manner, I will not use him or her.

Dr. Toby Broussard and all of the staff at Weight Wise Bariatric Center/Foundation Bariatric Hospital are very supportive and encouraging. Dr. Broussard is absolutely a world class surgeon and a very down to earth individual. He knows medicine with all of its fine points of intellectual knowlege and by instinct with the inner drive of a true healer with a sense of calling to practice bariatric medicine. I can not imagine finer care. I would trust Dr. Broussard with my life...in fact I did !! You will not find a better surgeon.rnThe team approach at Weight Wise was EXACTLY what I needed.
