Dr. Foote is an amazing doctor. I think that the first time that you meet him he is a little shy. After time though, he warms up and is a wonderfully caring physician.rnrnI cannot say anything negative about him or his staff. Grand Health Partners and Dr. Foote are with you every step of the way-including aftercare in all aspects. You cannot fail without trying to fail here.rnrnBoth Dr. Foote's surgical and bedside manner are great. I very highly recommend him and give him a 9.9!

When I met Dr. Foote my first thought was how young he looked, as we talked I was amazed at how intelligent, caring and thorough he was. rnI was very impressed with how knowledgeable the staff was and eager to answer all and any questions, no mater how dumb or insignificant they might seem. Dr. Foote and his team advised me of the risks involved and were very upfront about the dangers involved.rn

Dr. Foote is great. I was going to use a different surgeon in the practice, but after attending the orientation he gave, I felt we had similar personalities and senses of humor. I felt at ease with him right away. He shoots straight and truly takes the time to analyze each individual patient's needs and goals.

Sara DeYoung, Dr. Foote's insurance liasion and scheduler, is incredible. She's on the ball, very accessible...friendly and willing to do whatever it takes to get everything squared away for you. Insurance, appointments, consultations, etc...she works to do what is best for you, and makes it happen.

So far I am really happy with my surgeon and his office. I have appointments scheduled for 2 wk post op, 6 wks post op, 3 mo, 6 mo & 1 yr. They have their own dietian, exercise guru, behavorist (sp) and more. Everyone is extremely friendly and helpful. The support groups are well structured and moderated.rnrnI have no complaints so far with him or his staff.

Can't say enough about Dr. Kemmeter and the staff at Grand Health Partners in Grand Rapids, MI. He is such a great person and an excellent surgeon and very thorough in everything. The Bariatric program at GHP is very structured and complete. All aspects of care are done there as well as all testing. They have their own nutritionists, exercise physiologist, psych evals, and all foods needed for pre- and post-op. They do all their own endoscopy, sleep studies, gall bladder scans, etc. They have a very strong emphasis on after-care and are not there just to do your surgery and then let you go. rnI would definitely rate Dr. K as a 10 out of 10!

My first impression of Dr.Baker was a very caring and concerned about my well being. My impression never changed about him. He only wanted the best for me. rnThe whole staff is wonderful. They make a great TEAM. They are very dedicated professionals.Every time I have a question they are answered very quickly. When I needed a procedure it was done as soon as possible. The office staff is really nice and try to help as much as possible. The store at the office has so many differnt foods to choose from. The office is new and very nice. rnIf I ever have any problems relating to my gastric bypass, someone is always there day and night.rnThe after care is very important. Listening to the instructions and following them is so important. Keeping future appointment is the best thing to do.rnDr. Baker went over the risk of the surgery.rnDr. Baker and the team do the best they can do. As far as the last question. Both are great.
