Dr. Ganta was very quiet (and skinny!!) He was very knowledgable and took time to answer questions. He turned out to be very patient and concerned. He even had a sense of humor the more I got to know him. He was and still is very thorough and concerned. I really liked everything about him! The hospital staff were all very wonderful. The only person that was snotty and not very personable, was the pre-cert. nurse. She w I was so scared at first, but they were all so friendly and reassuring. The main things that I would like his future patients to know about him is that he is very strict about WHO he will perform the proceedure on (Lap RNY), and he is very honest with you. The other cool thing about him is that he studied with Dr. Whitgrove (the surgeon who performed Carnie Wilson's gastric bypass).
Dr. Ganta has a structured follow up program. Two weeks post-op, one month post-op,three months, six months, then once a year. But they HIGHLY encourage attending their monthly support groups.

I first met Dr. Ganta at a seminar in February 2003. I was impressed with him from that first meeting to the present. He seems to really care about his patients. Most of his office staff are pretty good. However, I think that their practice is growing too fast and they can't seem to keep up. You have to usually call them 2 -3 times before you get a call returned. Also, he sees patients right in the hospital - it seems it would be better if he had an office for his patients to see him. He makes sure you understand what is going to be happening to you and stresses that you must exercise and watch what you eat after the surgrery. I would give him a good overall rating. He seems to really know what he is doing nad has a concern for his patients.
Dr. Ganta is a quite man that has the best bed side manner I have ever seen. When he listens to you and your concerns he is REALLY listening to you! I checked with other doctors in this area but found none that could compare to the compassion that I felt Dr. Ganta expressed. After the surgery, Dr. Ganta and his staff keep a close eye on you and will talk to you anytime you need a friendly voice or advice. They have a counseling class the first Tuesday of each Month to help you deal with the changes going on with your body and mind. I recommend Dr. Ganta to everyone that I talk to that is interested in the Bariatric Surgery. I trust this man so much I talked my sister into visiting him. Her surgery is on April 8th!
