Live Healthy MD Bariatric Center
Dr. Blaney is a great surgeon! I saw 2 other doctors before I went to Dr. Blaney, they weren't very friendly, didn't run the tests like he does before you have surgery, and I liked Dr. Blaney after talking to him, he explained it all very well, and I knew he was the one I wanted to do my surgery, if your considering surgery, definitely consider him!
My first impression of him was he is nice, down to earth, and caring. He also tells you everything you need to know there are no surprises with him. His office staff is great too they are all very nice, helpful, and if you have any questions they are more then happy to answer them. They all make you feel comfortable you never feel out of place. As a surgeon I would rate him a 10. I don't think you could ask for a better surgeon. His surgical competence and bedside manner are both great. Dr. Blaney and his team also hold a support group meeting once a month at the hospital.

When I first met Dr Blaney I thought here is a compassionate dr who is interested in his patients. He demonstrates this consistently whenever I see him. He is a great surgeon as I came through the surgery great and have had continued success as well as his support throughout everything so far. In the beginning he covered everything regarding the risks, and the outcome. The aftercare is great as he makes suggestions regarding vitamins and protein supplements to take. I knew from going to the first support group meeting in seeing him attend that you can tell he is interested in each of his patients having a successful outcome. WE didn't come all this way to fail and he is cheering each of his patients on from the sidelines I feel very lucky to have found such as great DOCTOR in Dr. Blaney.
What can I say about Dr. Blaney and his staff? I simply think they are the best.rnrnI was nervous about meeting with Dr. Blaney for the first time, but he immediately put me at ease with his calm manner, and a great smile.rnrnEducation about WLS is a very important component of Dr. Blaney's practice. He and the staff want you to be well informed about the process from start to finish and aftercare. rnrnI attended an informational meeting, and a family meeting at which he showed us an actual operation of the lap band, and the RNY. My husband and mother were in attendance, and were very impressed with Dr. Blaney, as they asked lots of questions and he answered them all.rnrnI am looking forward to having the Lap Band on June 30, 2008.rnrnThanks Dr. Blaney for helping me help myself.
