Meridian Surgical Group Bariatric Center

MY 1ST IMPRESSION WAS THAT HE WAS VERY, VERY YOUNG, BUT AFTER TALKING WITH HIM I REALIZED HE'S JUST ONE OF THOSE PEOPLE WHO WILL LOOK YOUNGER EVEN WHEN HE'S 90. HE WAS VERY STRAIGHT FORWARD, HONEST, AND SHOWS A REAL CONCERN FOR HIS PATIENTS AND WORK.
HIS STAFF IS VERY NICE AND HELPED IN ANY WAY THAT THEY CAN.
I CAN'T SAY THERE WAS ANYTHING I DISLIKED ABOUT HIM, HONESTLY
ASK HIM ANY QUESTIONS THAT YOU HAVE, I HAVE ASKED SOME OF THE ODDEST, GROSSEST AND MEDICALLY DIFFICULT QUESTIONS AND HE ALWAYS HAD A ANSWER READY.
AFTERCARE IS STRESSED CONSTANTLY, I'VE BEEN TO SOME GROUPS AT OTHER HOSPITALS AND THE POST-OPS DON'T SEEM TO BE CONCERNED ABOUT VITAMINS, PROTEIN, ETC.
THE AFTERCARE PROGRAM IS GOOD, BUT I LIVE ABOUT 2 HRS AWAY SO I CAN'T TAKE ADVANTAGE OF IT.
HE MAKES SURE UNDERSTAND THE RISKS AND COMPLICATIONS THAT CAN OCCUR.
SURGICAL COMPETENCE, IF SOMETHING GOES WRONG DURING SURGERY, IT DOESN'T MATTER IF HE'S NICE OR NOT. (BUT BOTH DO MATTER.)

I meet Dr. Inman through my husband she did he surgery and I liked her very well! I tell other about her often! There office staff is very good and very helpful! Don't be afraid to ask question, she will anwser them!A lot on after care It is very in important!Yes she did, both times , for my husband and me!I rate her highly! She save my hubby and my life! The surgical competence, bedsidemarrer are great!

dr inman is straight and to the point my family thought she was a little bit wierd but shes been really nice to me everytime i see her.

My first impression is that she is a fantastically motivate and intellegent woman who strives to really help her patients. The office staff were wonderful. They gave information and took information smoothly and really listened to my concerns. I would have liked to been able to spend a little more time discussing the procedure and the process, but was well prepared for the appt. She demands that her patients blood sugars are stable and they are free of nicotine. I don't smoke, but the other patients gasped when she said she would cancel the surgery of any patient that tests positive for nicotine prior to surgery. She addressed my concerns very well. She said that she felt that she could help me and that she agreed with my choice in the Roux-enY GBP procedure. I'm a nurse, so we got on well. i think her competence is great, and I haven't had surgery, YET, will up date you on her bedside manner.

I MEET DR. INMAN AT THE ORT CLASS SHE WAS VERY TO THE POINT AND SOUNDED LIKE SHE WAS A VERY GOOD SURGEON. ALL OTHER INFO I RECIVED FROM HER STAFF. THEY ARE GREAT VERY NICE AND SEAM TO CARE ABOUT EVERYTHING GOING ON WITH YOU. COLEEN DID ALL MY INSURANCE WORK AND I WAS APPROVED IN A VERY SHORT TIME.I HAVE HEARD ALOT ABOUT HER NOT BEENING VERY PERSONABLE BUT SHE KNOWS WHAT SHE IS DOING I WOULD RATE HER SURGERY ABILTY A 10. AT LEAST SHE HIRED A GREAT STAFF TO BACK HER UP AND THATS FENE WITH ME ALL I CARE ABOUT IS THAT SHE DID A GREAT JOB IN THE SURGERY ROOM.

My first impression was that she didn't take alot of time for her patients but since then I believe she is very caring and extremely good at what she does.I would recommend her to anyone,however the staff at St. Vincent of Carmel could definitely use some training in bedside manners. I did not have a very good experience with the recovery room or the first night nurse that was assigned to me-however the surgery itself was worth the hassle-it has given me a second chance at life and I appreciate Dr.Inman for that.

I do like him. He has done a fill on my band but now I am having pain and problems so we talked about taking it out and doing the bypass after a few test. He seems to listen.

I have had my initial consult with Dr. Inman a week ago. My aunt, who had the surgery last year, recommended her and the Saint Vincent's Bariatric Center. My initial visit with her consisted of about 5 minutes where she looked over my medical history and pronounced that I was a good candidate for the surgery. She did suggest that I have a sleep study done, because that would be one more co-morbidity to list for insurance approval. I also watched a slide show where she talked about the different surgeries and her approach. I have heard that she is very no-nonsense and gets right to the point. I would have to agree with this assessment. She seems very competent and I am very happy with my choice thus far.

I haven't meet him yet but i've heard amazing things about h im. very excited to meet him.

Dr. Evanson was very personable. I have not been to his office yet so, I don't know what they are like.
