The Denver Center for Bariatric Surgery Bariatric Center
During my attendance at Dr. Snyder's seminar, my impression of him was that he was a personable man and a caring physician, who did not have the usual prejudices against obese people. My impression did not change during my office visit with him. I felt that he listened attentively and did not talk down to me.
His office staff was efficient and polite, but seemed harried.
Because I knew that I was going to be a self-pay, I would have liked for the issue of cost to have been disclosed during the seminar.
It seems to me his aftercare program is outstanding.
Very professional and careing
My impression over time has not changed. I know if I get into trouble, Dr. Snyder and his staff will help me.
Office staff is very much the same. Very careing and professional. May even give more than 150%.
This is a life time committment and unless they are ready to make this life time change from the day of surgery, this is not for them.
The after care is very important, especially if you are going to stay healthy. I don't know of anyone who has succeeded without following the rules.
There is a very structured after care, but you have to take the patient needs to be accountable and follow it to the letter.
There is always a risk, just be aware of how to get help, the symtems, and rules.
I rate this office, Dr. and staff number 1 in surgery, customer care, and after care.
This Dr. and staff have surgical compentence and bedside manner. Very professional, listens, protects, advises, and cares for any simptoms related to the surgery.
My first impression of Dr. Snyder was that he was professional, and I did not feel like he was "rushing" me through the office appointment. He took the time to explain everything and then answer all my questions. Dr. Snyder has the absolute, hands down, best office staff of any doctor that I have ever been to. I can not say enough good things about each and every one of them. I travel about three hours distance for my appointments pertaining to my surgery, so I am not familiar with the Denver area......I had an appointment with the cardiologist after seeing Dr. Snyder, and was not sure how to get to her office.....Dr. Snyder's front desk clerk took the time to walk me over to the appointment so that I was on time and not wandering around trying to find where I needed to be. I have NEVER been treated so wonderfully at a physicians office. I must also say a work or two about Miss Dolly....I needed to change my surgery date due to a tragedy that our family suffered....not only did she take care of everything that needed to be done concerning the rescheduling....she took the time on several occasions just to check in and see how I and my family were doing. WOW....I have had a totally awesome experience with these truely dedicated and caring folks.
From the beginning, I had confidence in Dr. Snyder. He was straightforward and dynamic. He has put together a team that is outstanding in patient care. He follows up on pages as soon as humanly possible. It seems he keeps a file on his patients in his head. He listens and advises. You know he is busy, but his responses are thoughtful and on target.
He is an outstanding surgeon and physician.
He was fabulous - very self confident and full of energy. He's a Harvard trained doctor and has spent much time with the best laproscropic surgeons in the United States to perfect his technique. My surgery went well and when I had a severe migraine headache while in the hospital, Dr. Snyder made it disappear. He has a wonderful bedside manner and is a GREAT surgeon.
Office staff is good, especially Dolly who helped get my insurance to approve the surgery.
They have lots of aftercare available to include followup appts, nutrition classes, support groups, etc.
Dr. Snyder throughly addressed the risks of surgery.
I'd rate him a 10.
I was impressed with Dr. Chae from the beginning. I was made very comfortable by the whole staff. I've seen him 4 times total and my opinion never changed.
Dr. Snyder is the most amazing doctor and man I have ever met. He cares about his patients so much and will walk to the end of the earth to take care of them and to see them succeed.
From the first time I met Dr. Snyder I was very impressed with his compassion for overweight people and the dedication that he has to seeing that I become healthy.
If you choose to become a patient of Dr. Snyder's realize that you are his patient for life. He has a vested interest in seeing you succeed and really stresses taking proper care of yourself after surgery and for the rest of your life. His post-op rules are very strict, but they work and provide great success.
Dr. Snyder is very clear about the fact that the surgery has significant risks. I can attest first hand, I had some complications, and Dr. Snyder has bent over backwards to take care of and to make sure that I was safe and healthy. He has always been there when I needed him. Anytime I have had an emergency Dr. Snyder always shows up to take care of the problem and to comfort me and let me know exactly whats going on and what I can expect. He doesn't sugar coat problems, yet he has an amazing way of easing ones concerns.
