Stephen V. Hamn, MD Bariatric Center
I met Dr. Hamn in 1999 when I had breast cancer. He was my surgeon for my masectomy and 2 other surgeries. I felt extremely comfortable with him the first time I met him. I told the office staff he was a cutie patootie and he still is, but alittle older. LOL. Dr. Hamn is a doctor you can talk to and he will listen. He doesnt rush you. He would listen to you as long as you needed him too.
I first met with Dr. Hamn in 2003 and decided upon the Lap procedure. He answered all of my questions and gave me no reason not to proceed. Had a 2nd consult in 2007 after failed attempts to get insurance to cover. Still feel positive about Dr. Hamn and his staff will be proceeding with Lap as a self-payer.
He is funny, handsome, and very easy to make eye contact with. rnMy impression has only gotten better. He is not trying to sell a product like some others I have talked to.rnHis office staff is well....awesome. Sheryl the bariatric coordinator is a cool chick.rnThere is nthing I dont like about him...yet.rnHe seriously emphasis aftercare, he is seriously concerned about a pt's mental state.rnHe addressed the risk of surgery in detail, there were a variety of questions asked and he answered all of them honest and forward.rnHe is a 10, a perfect 10. rnI had been to 3 seminars before finding Dr Hamn and I got that giddy happy love satisfied feeling with him, when with the others it was a feeling of blllaahhh blllaahhh blllaahh or not sure or he just wanted my money. ..........that entry was made before surgery, now after surgery i feel the same and i have to add he is way more handsome in person.
Had surgery in October 2005 and have lost 71 lbs to-date. I'm scheduled to have my 1st fill in early January.
Finding Dr. Hamn has been nothing short of miraculous. After having a VERY BAD experience with the Barix Clinic (Dr. Hall) in Wylie, TX, I was referred to Dr. Hamn by my primary physician. I started with a seminar at Plano Presbyterian that was very helpful and answered many questions that I had concerning the surgery. His staff was extremely helpful and always professional.
I was particularly impressed with the amount of time he spent with me after surgery in the hospital.
I would highly recommend him to anyone considering any bariatric surgery.
