Institute for Metabolic and Bariatric Surgery Bariatric Center


Dr. G, as he is called, was very good to deal with. He put you at ease immediately and engendered complete confidence. The staff at this office and in the hospital were all excellent and delightful to deal with. I had my surgery, VSG, in March and it's been very successful. Aftercare is stressed and encouragement is always provided. All risks were discussed - this program and this dr. are very though. I have recommended Dr. G, and or this program to a number of people and think highly of everything related to them.
I really have no negatives to state - this whole experience exceeded my expectations.

My surgeon was Gintaras Antnavicius; he is better know at the center and hospital as Doctor G. He was fantastic; he knows his business, the entire center for excellence is a great group that really care about you. They dot every i and cross every t prior to surgery for your saftey. I would reccomend them to anyone considering bariatric surgery.

Dr. G is young,relatable, and confident. He did not seem rushed, and he gladly answered all my questions. He is trained to do lap surgery via the Divinci Robot. Only a small handful of surgeons are trained to use this remarkable technology.
Post review:
I had my surgery, and I am very happy with Dr. G. I had no complications, and a much easier recovery than I anticipated! I highly recommend the Abington Bariatric Group, and Dr. Antanavicius in particular!

my 1st impression of Dr G was that he seem so smooth. he made you feel comfortable that you was in the office talking to him about losing weight.
When i was in the hospital his bedside manner was so perfect and pleasant. maybe that is Why I kept going back due to some stomach pains that I experience.
His recommended after care I believe is the only one that works. I am so glad that Dr. G or for that matter all the Bariatric institute staff at Abington Memorial Hospital was taking care of me.
My surgeon is my book is the BEST!!!!!
He is Great/ He is totally surgical competent and as I stated before his bedside manner is SUPERB!!!!

Dr. G put at ease right form the start you are all ways apprehensive when starting some thing like this.
My opinion Of Dr. G has not changed probably the best Dr. that I have.
The office staff is top shelf,None better.
No dislikes.
Dr. G will take care of all your need and fears when going through is procedure.
Aftercare is for most in there program.
yes
They were very thorough in laying out risks.
Dr G. is the best recommend him to everyone.
Both are great.
I talk to every one that I saw at the hosp. about Dr. g and every body says the same thing.

WOw- thats all Im going to say had my Rny-WLS on 2/10/10 and Dr G was quite amazing and a very nice guy as well. made me feel so comfortable, stopped by my room everyday and so did Renee and the rest of the pose from The bariatric institute of weight loss from abington hospital, The entire gang is awesome, cant say much about the nurse staff at abington ? When I 1st got to my room ny nurse call button was broke and I had to call home and ask them to send in the nurse, 2nd niight it took 50 minutes for the dam nurse to respond and 2hrs for liquid tylenol , really displeased with the staff at the hospital, but like I said these guys were great and I know they had nothing to do with those other clowns...
