Miami Hope Center Bariatric Center

He was a great surgeon, not too friendly as in bedside manner-- but very capable. I would recommend him to others. His office has an after-care program and I foud the nurse Ketty to be very helpful and informative.

My first impressions of Dr.Gonzalez was wow this Doctor really knows his stuff. I went to his seminar before having the surgery and he was very convincing and I walked out knowing that he was going to be my surgeon.They office staff is very nice and very helpful.Future patients should know that Dr. Gonzalez is very good at what he does, He truly does care about you as an individual. I would give Dr. G as I call him a 10 out of 10 I would recomend him to anyone for a Lap gastric bypass, you wont be sorry.

Anthony Gonzalez is a great doctor. So is the team (Rabaza and Verdeja). I have been through a great journey with this doctor and Dr. Rabaza too, who has had to deal with some of my complications. I have been in the hospital several times with complications and Dr. Gonzalez has always been there for me. I have such trust in the man, I know that I will be okay as long as I am in his care.

He is very personable and nice. The staff is wonderful too. And Ketty is a dear.

Well my first impression of Dr,Gonzalez...was so so,He was very straigt foward, right to the point, He sound very proffesional from day one...but too serious about everything and that made me feel uncomfortable...I need some support you know!! But the day of the surgery he was awesome,get there early promised me that he will take of me and did his best,and he definetely did!!! I must said that i couldn't have a better surgeon,quick and sharp and did a wonderfull job...God Bless Dr.Gonzalez and all his staff.I had Dr. Rabaza visited me and taking care of me during the hospital stay and he was excellent too!The only thing that is really bad is the waiting at the office they're so busy and you can go there in a rush... =0(

The first time a met Dr. Rabaza he was very straight forward and serious. After i had my surgery i realized how caring he was. I knew then i had made the right choice. I look forward to seeing him. I would not change him for the world!

Doctor Anthony Gonzalez is a chrismatic individual in his presentations. When you do finally meet him it is well worth the wait. I've Heard very good things about him and I was refered to him by my borther Dr. Michael Diaz who is a pastic surgeon himself and know Dr Gonzalez personally.

His staff does take care of the insurnace and all the paperwork and they are very honest regarding what your particular insurance company may be requiring at the moment. Carmen and Mora are excellent.

Dr Gonzalez was extremely blunt and honest concerning the complications that can arise from this operation and in fact I think maybe a little over the top but he wants you to be certain that this is not a magic bullet.


Dr. Gonzalez does not have a warm bedside manner but his professionalism out weights that aspect for me. The one thing I did regret is not having a pre op appointment to ask him some final questions after I had my date. I understand that his office is busy but I think it would put a lot of patients at ease to ask his opertive procedures and what to expect right after.

Dr. Rabazza is a very person friendly surgeon. I met him (unexpectedly) when I was hospitalized with an infection in my foot which eventually led to a bk amputation. He is very informative and will spend the extra time to fully explain any procedure he is going to perform as well as answer questions you have. He is very interested in your total health and is there to help you any way he can. His office is very busy snd there have been times that the wait to see him in the office is over two hours. Additionally, to me it feels like when you are a patient of Dr. Rabazza you become part of his extended family.

When Dr. Rabaza found out that I was having trouble getting approval, he offered to help any way he could. He wrote a letter for me and also participated in a grievance hearing which led to my approval.

Dr. Rabaza made himself available when I needed him the most and I have no idea how I can thank him for this support.

Dr. Anthony Gonzalez is a very smart man. He definately knows his stuff. I am really impressed with him. I had no questions when I left the room. You are blessed if you can get in to see him.

He is very knowledgable. Very caring and understanding. He's very patient and hears you out. Answers all questions properly and easy to understand.

Office staff is very nice, they are very warm and also very understanding.

He's very forward and open as to the Good and the Bad about the surgery.

His aftercare consist of seeing him 1 week after surgery. Then at 3 month, 6 month and finally at your 1 year Anniversary.

He tells you very detailed the Pro's and Con's regarding the surgery. He walked me step by step on what I should expect and what will happen.

Overall he's FANTASTIC.
