Marc M. Zare MD, FACS Bariatric Center

My experience with Dr. Zare and his staff was wonderful. They took care of me before and after surgery. He's kind and patient and willing to answer all questions and concerns. My road to surgery was quick and effortless. His staff took care of all of the insurance concerns. The surgery itself went flawlessly. I had no complications and recovered beautifully. Thank you Dr. Zare for giving me my life back!

Dr Zare is simply the best. When I was asked by hospital staff who my surgeon was, the responses to Dr Zare's name were very positive. His bedside manner is positive and supportive. His surgical skills are outstanding from my perspective. I expected a 2 night hospital stay. But I felt so good and was up walking around the morning after my surgery, so I was allowed to go home. I am convinced I was able to recover quickly because of Dr Zare's excellent surgical skills. I am 15 weeks post surgery and i have had no complications of any kind.

Dr Zare was a brilliant surgeon. He took extra precautions due to my size but I came through with flying colors. Highly recommend him as a surgeon

I am glad that I chose Dr. Zare for my surgery. He was very helpful in explaining the different types of weight loss surgeries that he offered and the side effects that go along with them. He also made me feel very comfortable about the surgery that I chose to have. The office staff was also very nice and helpful with my questions. Dr. Zare also came to visit me the day after the surgery and the day I went home to ensure that I was healing properly, he also went out to the waiting room and informed my family that I did well in surgery. I would definitely recommend him to any of my friends or family.

Dr. Zare is such a blessing to me!Him and his staff are so professional and are prompt at answering all my questions and concerns.They did anything and everything necessary to get me started on this new journey and making sure that I knew I wasn't alone in this!I tried all kinds of different dieting programs,but just wasn't successful on my own. Two weeks before surgery Dr. Zare made sure to give me really good encouraging words for why he wants me to follow all pre and post-op instructions to the best of my ability.What an amazing doctor I told myself leaving his office! Thank you Dr. Zare for doing such an amazing surgery on me and making sure my stay at the hospital was as comfortable as possible .I appreciate the communication with my husband after surgery as well.I would go back to him again,again and again if I needed to.If anyone is looking for great surgeon he is it!

Dr. Zare is an outstanding professional. He is obviously extremely well educated, trained and is clearly at both the top of his game and the top of the bariatric surgeon profession. His professional presence is incredible with consistent positive feedback and comprehensive explanations. His bedside manner was impeccible while I was in the hospital.

Dr. Zare is awesome! Dr. Zare performed the perfect VSG surgery on me 12/17/12. The surgery & recovery were smooth as silk. Dr. Zare is very knowledgeable, professional, caring and talented. After interviewing 3 Surgeons, I am so glad that I selected Dr. Zare! What a positive experience! I had put off wls for several years due to my extreme fear of surgery. I no longer fear surgery thanks to Dr. Zare. Dr. Zare & his staff (Amelia & Kathryn) were a dream to work with! I highly recommend Dr. Zare! You will definitely make the right decision if you choose Dr. Zare!

I interviewed several surgeons before selecting Dr Zare. I was impressed with his professionalism and his compassion.Several physicians recommended Dr Zare, he has an excellent reputation as a surgeon. He spent a long time with my husband and I answering our questions , explaining the details , risks of bariatric surgery as well as the aftercare . His office staff Amelia and Kathryn are excellent and make the process so much easier than I could have imagined. Dr Zare works closely with Karen Thomas at El Camino Hospital. I had excellent support before surgery and now attend the monthly support group.
