Your New Self - DMC Weight Loss Solutions Bariatric Center

I will meet with him on April 16th.....Ok I met Dr Wood....What a wonderful man. I learned alot from him and I truly have faith in him. He wants everyone to sucseed.

I reserched Dr. Wood for many months before I decided to have the Sapala-Wood Micro pouch surgery. I read eveything I could get my hands. I could not find one thing negative about Dr. Wood, either personally or professionally. When I met him the fist time face to face, I came home and told my husband that I found my surgeon. It was that easy for me. All the important words describe Dr. Wood...Caring, kind, compassionate, sensative, professional, takes time with you, answers questions, he is the total package when it comes to a doctor! Every one of his people that I came into contact with treated me like I was a family member. You can't go wrong with Dr. Wood and CORI centers!!!!!!

Dr Wood is wonderful. I first met him 2 yrs ago when he was with Livelite. He has a nice sense of humor and smiles alot. I haven't had my surgery yet so I don't know how his bedside manner is but I hear it's great.

I first met Dr. Wood at a seminar he was presenting at. I was very impressed with his knowledge and his cofidence in WLS. My husband attend my consult with me and was was extrememly impressed with Dr. Wood (and it takes a lot for my husband to be impressed by a doctor). He has a very good attitude and is kind and caring. I am looking forward to my surgery date, because I know I am in good hands with Dr. Wood.

My first impression of Dr. Wood was that he really knew what he was doing. He seemed very careing and intellegent. Although very busy, I didn't get to spend much time with him, but I understand.
My impression never changed I still think the same about him.
Dr. Wood's office staff were some of the nicest caring people I've met at a doctors office in a long time.
Future patients should bring someone with you to consiltation because he goes over a lot of important stuff that you won't want to forget.
Dr. Wood is very big on staying away from Carbs & Starchs after sugery.
There is a nutritionist at his office available anytime for a structured aftercare diet.
Dr. Wood explained the risks of surgery but also said that he thought I'd do great because I'm young and relatively healthy, he was right because I'm doing great!
I didn't see Dr. Wood much after surgery, but when I did he was concerned about how I was feeling.
On a scale of 1-10 Dr. Wood definately was a solid 12!!! He's a great doctor!

MY FIRST IMPRESSION OF DR WOOD WAS THIS MAN KNOWS WHAT HE'S DOING. HE HAD A GREAT ATTITUDE ABOUT DOING THIS TYPE OF SURGERY AND ALSO WANT TO HELP OBESE PATIENTS. HIS OFFICE STAFF WAS REAL NICE. THEY ALSO WERE VERY AFFECTIONATE WHEN IT CAME TO ME MOVING AROUND IN THE OFFICE AND HAVING A HARD TIME GETTING ON A TABLE IN THE OFFICE. THEY WERE VERY PROFESSIONAL. FOR FUTURE PATIENTS THIS DOCTOR IS THE WAY TO GO. HE IS VERY EXPERIENCED AND HAS A GOOD TRACK RECORD AND A VERY VERY LOW COMPLICATION RATE WITH ALL HIS PATIENTS. EVEN I WAS IMPRESSED. HE REALLY DOES STRESS HOW IMPORTANT AFTERCARE IS. ALSO HE STRESSES THAT WEIGHT SURGERY IS NOT A QUICK FIX, IT TAKES DETERMINATION AND DRIVE TO KEEP THE WEIGHT OFF ONCE YOU LOSE IT. HE SAYS WEIGHT LOSS SURGERY "IS ONLY A TOOL". SO FAR I RATE HIM A 10 OUT OF 10 !!
KEEP UP THE GOOD WORK DR WOOD!

Dr. Michael H. Wood. My first impression of him was that he was a great Dr. He has a nice personality, and was great at answering any question you might have had. Over time nothing changed for me really he still had a great disposition for a doctor. I loved his office and staff memebers ... always courtious and very willing to help you with anything. The thing I liked least was that he would not do the sugury lathro. on me because my BMI was over 40.
I think people should know that he does not like to fail ... he wins everything when he does the sugury. He stresses follow ups after sugury and you have to take shots for 6 days after sugury ... your buddy has to give them to you unless you feel you could do it yourself.
Overall I think Dr. Wood is the right doctor to go with. I like him and I think I can trust him in doing the best that he can pos. do to make me healthy.
I feel that surgical competence and bedside manner are both great qualitys with this doctor. If you are in the area of Warren I would recommend him.

Dr. Webber........Initial counceltation was great Dr. Webber isn't trying to sell you anything. He truly wants to help you gain a better life. *He had talked about how an insurance company wouldn't cover the patients surgery, and that they didn't go after patient for costs...that proved to me that he's not in it for the money....
One year and a week later I am finally approved and ready to go~ I meet w/Dr.W today and some things have changed a lil bit~now they require a 2 week diet before hand to shrink your liver to make the lap procedure easier. You know it had been a year and Dr.W remembered me and even noticed my hair was a lil different~ It was nice to know I have a Surgeon that pays attention to details and has an excellent memory! :O)

Dr. Wood is very knowledgable and approachable. Will take the time you need for questions. His office staff is fantastic. They will answer any questions you have.

I haven't seen Him yet, but after reading every thing here, I am confident I have made a good choice. The staff was great. I filled out my papers and went across to the hospital to get my blood work. I have to call tomarrow to get my shrink appt. and then I get to see the Dr. Will update later.

(Update)He's great! and he did a great job with my surgery. I highly recommend him. He explained all of the risks and aftercare before hand. My only complaint would be that he is so popular you have to wait to get an appointment and once you get there you have to wait. I guess I can live with that.
