Dr. Moazzez was a wonderful, caring surgeon.
He is genuine and tells it like it is.
Extremly competent,and great bedside manner,

I am so glad I picked him as my surgeon, I had no complications, and I am now coming up on my 5 year anniversary minus 126 pounds!

He really is so friendly and understanding. Very funny guy, great sense of humor, you can tell he really cares about his patients. He makes a true effort to get to know you and your family and your individual situation.
His office is extremely busy, so we often had long waits for appointments.

My first impression is still my impression a year later. Very competent, remembers who you are, seems to care if the programs are beneficial that they offer at the hospital. His staff is very friendly and helpful. They are also very knowledgeable. I'm considering a revision surgery and will definitely use Dr. Moazzez.

Dr. Mo is just a-mazing. caring, felt like he was an old friend, instantly. Each surgeon in the practice is just more amazing than the last.
Dr. Moazzez is an excellent surgeon and the office staff is top notch, especially Pam. At all appointments, both pre and post op, he was very personable and had plenty of time to explain and answer questions (my husband had A LOT of questions). I had the sleeve gastrectomy and a hiatal hernia repair, which was not known going into surgery. Going into my initial consultation I felt a little nervous because he had not performed as many sleeve operations as other bariatric procedures, but upon leaving that visit I was extremely confident regarding both his knowledge and skill to provide me with my surgery of choice.
Honestly, there is not a negative thing I have to say regarding my dealings with Dr. Moazzez or his staff, and I am a very critical person. The office staff was very helpful when I had problems with the hospital.
I am 11 days shy of being 3 months post-op and already have lost 61 lbs. with 39 lbs. left to go. I feel I owe this success to the education I received from Dr. Moazzez the office staff, nurse, and dietician. I am very confident that I picked the best surgery and best surgeon for me.

Dr. Moazzez's is very personable and professional, made sure I understood what he was discussing. My first inpression of him was at one of his seminar's and you could tell he was a busy man, but he presented the facts. My first appointment he was not rushed nor did he try to get on to the next appointment, he takes his time with you. His office staff is wonderful, they are very friendly and really set the tone for his office. He gave me a 2inch three ring binder at my first visit and we went over everything in detail. It contains checklists, required appointments and phone numbers, aftercare and the even NIV study on obesity! This book has been with me everyday and I use it as a reference tool and notebook. Dr. Moazzez came recommended to me by my Mother's friend who is one of his patients and he and his staff have lived up to everything she told me. I want a doctor who knows what he is doing and doesn't forget that we are people with feelings--not a time slot in his day. For me Dr. Moazzez fits this description to a \"t\"!

Dr Moazzez is amazing! Kind, compassionate, and dedicating to helping the obese become healthy. I can't say enough good things about him and the people that work in his practice!rnrnThere was a huge emphasis on aftercare, and a strong partnership with the team at Inova Fairfax Hospital. He went over the risks of surgery with me in great detail, and had me do a quiz to make sure I understood everything.

My doctor is the best. My first impression was: Ok, he is eye candy but does he know his business. He was in no rush when I had my one on one with him.....the morning of surgery, he came in joking putting me at ease, after surgery he came in joking about the fact that my \"by pass\" went great. That was a joke cause I had told him if I wake up with a bypass, him and I would have a serious problem. PLEASE DO NOT LET HIS NUMBERS fool you, I almost made that mistake, looking for a doctor who had a higher number listed, I am so glad that did not work out and I went with Dr. Moazzez. Two years later, I am still happy with my choice of surgeon...would not trade him for a bag of chips (smile)
