Meridian Surgical Group Bariatric Center

My first impression of Dr. Diaz was how pleasant he was and what a great bedside manner he had immediately. My impression of him never changed over time. He was always considerate and compassionate doctor. My overall experience with Dr. Diaz was excellent. The office staff was kind and helpful even when I felt like I was being a pest. The only thing I could say on the side is that I felt that my doctor's office should have had some post op counseling for behavioral changes after surgery.

DR. EVANSTON SEEMS TO BE VERY PROFESSIONAL AND
COMPASSIONATE TO OUR UNIQUE PROBLEMS.

My surgery was on March 3,04. He works miracles. I have had no problems.

Staff are knowledgable

He is skilled and young enough to be able to do the latest and greatest procedures well.

INSURANCE ACCEPTS HIM FOR LAP BAND ;


I WENT FOR A PRESENTATION THAT LASTED ABOUT AN HOUR. I WOULD GIVE IT 4 STARS/
ALL THE INFO I NEEDED TO MAKE A DECISION.

I AM STICKING WITH HIM FOR MY SURGERY. I FEEL SECURE WITH HIS SKILL LEVEL
AND CANDOR.

LAST BUT NOT LEAST! HE HAS IT GOING ON AS THEY SAY.

She is great!!!!!! I went the week before surgery to see her I had 3 pages of questions and she just sat back crossed her legs and we went through them. I'm very confident in her abilities as a surgeon. I would recommend her to anyone!!!

I attended my consultation on January 15th with Dr. Evanson. He was very informative. He explained everything very thoroughly with our group, and likewise in the individual consult. The staff at St.Vincent's is wonderful as well. They guide you through each step of the process.

I never really met Dr. Inman til the day of my surgery.She had talked to me and others in the first appointment I had but I never talked to her one on one I spoke with her P.A. Holly and she is very friendly and helpful.I have no doubt that Dr. Inman is a great surgeon she is a trama surgeon and has done this kind of surgery for 11 years so how can you get better than that?The day I went home Dr. Inman and Holly were both there answering all of my questions and being very supportive.I have nothing to say but good things about them both and the staff at St. Vincents are the best I dont think I would have got better treatment anywhere.

I'm really happy with Dr.Evanson and his staff. When you first meet him you will be surprised he's very young and doesn't look like a Doctor. He also doesn't dress like one. (even in his office) I personally like that about him, it makes him seem more approachable.

His staff/nurses are also very kind. If you have a problem concern, question they don't mess around getting back to you, regardless of how small the problem is.

He has a great bedside manner as well. My incision in my belly button opened up and I lost a lot of blood from it. When he visited me the next day he checked the incision and rebandaged it. That's pretty rare for a surgeon, as they usually have nurses take care of that. I would recommend him to anyone looking for a surgeon, he's confident and will set your mind and your fears at ease.
I felt very safe in his hands. SO safe I actually walked myself to the OR table, joked with the nurses and was totally relaxed when they put me under. If youre going to have an elective surgery, make damn sure youre in good hands!

He hasn't registered with Obesityhelp.com (probably because surgeons have to PAY to do this) So I will tell you 75% of his work is WLS the other 25% he's a trauma surgeon for Methodist Hospital. Very Good Doctor :)

My experience with Dr. Inman was good. My personal opinion of her was she was very direct and informative. She encouraged questions, and gave specific answers to all questions asked and even gave us answers to some we forgot to ask.

She seem through and I felt she knew what she was talking abou. She used drawings to help me understand the surgery more, and went through each type of surgey and explained each one and how they differed. The only real negative I felt was a little rushed afterwards, and would have preferred to talk to Dr. Inman rather then her P.A.

So far her office staff has been more then helpfull and informative. I wish I could have had a little more one on one with her, but I understand with the busy schedule she has it is difficult.

She said this surgery will work if you as a patient use the surgery as a tool and follow your aftercare program well. The after care so far seems very good.

She never sugar coated the risk in any way, she made it know the risks are real and are to be considered by all!

So far I am happy with Dr. Inman & her Office Staff & St. Vincent Bariatric Center.

Dr. Evanson is about the nicest doctor I have seen. He talks to you about what is going to be done and is very supportive. My follow up vists were great. His office is very nice.

I love Dr. Inman's straight forward approach. She's been given a talent and the tools to help people and that is what she does. Her staff was very helpful and never seemed annoyed at any of my calls. At my original consultation I was at first a little overwhelmed by the # of other potential patients in the office. I felt sort of like we were being "herded" for a moment. However, after meeting Dr. Inman I realized that I was simply one of several people interested in the surgery. I'm extremely pleased w/ all of my interactions w/ Dr. Inman before my surgery and after.

Dr Inman is very down to earth. She doesn't speak in terms that are over your head and she is fairly blunt and tells it to you like it is. I truly think that she enjoys helping people make a better life for themselves.
