Pacific Bariatric Surgical Medical Group, Inc. Bariatric Center

Dr. Zorn was very nice. He did not make me feel embarrassednabout all the questions I asked him. I am the first surgery on Wed. so I hope he gets a good night's sleep on Tues:0)
Patient coordinator Emily was Super. Always returned my call right away and was professional and friendly.

Dr. Rumsey is one of the most compationate people I have ever met. He has stuck with me with a post op system that his surgical group stresses. They insist that you follow their protocol to the letter which includes 1 month, three month, six month and one year checkups by him or one of the surgeons in his group.
Their after care program is tops particularly when I hear of other surgeon's programs.
They provided, both verbally and documented, a very complete program about risk management. They even openly tell about patients that they have lost. Only 4 in over 3 thousand. They insist on a evaluation by an internist, psyhiatrist and one of their surgeons before being approved for surgery.
I would be glad to tell anyone contemplating this surgery about my experiences.
Their entire staff is geared toward helping all of their patients from the thinking stage all the way through the insurance process, surgery and post op support.

I have only attended an orientation where Dr. Rumsey spoke. He is one of four surgeons with Pacific Bariatric. What I like best about him is his sense of humor and he seems very patient.

I first met Dr. Zorn when I went to the informational seminar at Pacific Bariatrics. I got a chance to talk to him briefly after the seminar, and I found him very compassionate and witty. I met with him on 01-19-01 for my surgeon appt., and he offered to do my surgery laparscopically. I am very impressed with Dr. Zorn, and from everything I have read about him, I will be in good hands.

Dr. Zorn treated me with respect. He was very caring, and took the time to answer all of my questions. He explained everything in great detail. I feel that he is a very competent surgeon, and he also was very compassionate. I have no complaints about the surgery in general or the care that I have received since my surgery.

10/09/00: I saw Dr. Rumsey in the office today for my consultation visit. He is wonderful, he was so nice and understanding. He did the procedure on my mom and she is doing great. I am very excited having him as my surgeon. The office staff was very friendly and helpful with all the paper work. His nurse was great with me. Dr. Rumsey explained the whole procedure and answered all the questions I had with no problem. He welcomes your comments and gives you answers you can understand. I would rate him at a 9 for now just because I haven't had the surgery yet.
11/21/01: Dr. Rumsey is the greatest surgeon ever. I am very lucky he happended to fall in my lap. He was just great with me and he had me so relaxed and and very confident with his expertise. He truley made me feel great. I would reconmend him to anyone. The hoospital staff was great also. The nurses took great care of me. Anything I needed they would get for me. The whole experience was great. Dr. Rumsey, his office staff, and the hospital staff all get great big 10's from me. I just can't tell you how great they were.

DR. ZORN WAS A VERY PLEASANT AND IMFORMITIVE DOCTOR. HE WAS VERY HELPFUL AND WENT OVER THE SURGERY WITH ME AND ANSWERED ALL MY QUESTIONS. I DIDNT FEEL LIKE HE WAS IN A RUSH TO GO TO ANOTHER PATIENT. IAM VERY GLAD HE WILL BE MY DOCTOR.

I chose Pacific Bariatric and Dr Rumsey after attending a manditory meeting. He was the surgeon who performed the lecture. I have been extremely satisfied with his care. I would refer anyone looking for a surgeon to him. He has changed my life for the better.

My first impression of him was that he was kind and informative and truthful when I asked about people I knew that had complications after surgery.

He was wonderful from the start. His office,Pacific Barriactric, is so professional and very well run. You have to attend a seminan run by staff members,all questions are answered. Very knowledgeable. They stress before and after care. I would give the whole program a 10!!
