Valeriu E. Andrei MD Bariatric Associates Bariatric Center

I am very happy with all services from Dr. Andrei's office. They are very organized and were very helpful through my whole process. The nutritional classes were very helpful. Pamela is great. The office staff is very helpful and kept me informed and followed up with me on everything. I am glad that I was referred to Dr. Andrei by another patient, Marion Ross.

I was referred to Dr Andrei by two people who had had surgery. One had lapband and the other RNY. First impression was great. He is attentive and soft spoken. I had the lapband surgery that did not work for me (slipped band) and came back for the RNY. I think he is a very competent surgeon. Bedside manner is excellent. I am on a program now and would like to attend some group meetings although I live far. Office staff is EXCELLENT. I had considered having the revision surgery closer to home and actually made a phone call to a doctor in Holmdel. I was treated extremely rudely by the person on the phone and decided right then and there..to stick with the best. I am glad I chose to do that. I had read up extensively on my own on the risks of surgery and thought very carefully about having the revision but I decided to go ahead with it. I did have full trust in Dr Andrei. There is nothing that I havent been 100% happy with. I came thru the surgery with no complications at least so far. I think the most important thing is to get a competent surgeon and he is definately that. Also very important to me is the office staff. They are polite and caring and helpful. So an A+ all around. I just wish the office wasnt so far..I think that would be the only negative thing.

Greetings All:

I had my surgey on November 4, 2009 -I have since lost 169 lbs.-I have lost a WHOLE- person (lol)I did not just lose the weight -I lost the WEIGHT. But what I really want to tell you about is the love, caring and professionalism I encountered with Dr. Andrei and his staff-phenomenal is all I can say. God sent me to Dr. Andrei- I am sure of that! Many of his staff members have had bariatric surgery and they are a great help. His administrat staff goes out of there way to help you abate any insurance problems that you may encounter and Dr. Andrei goes above and beyond to ensure that you are in the best health you can be -before you have the surgery. I have experience after experience with him and his staff where they extended themselves. I have referred many people to him as a result of my great success and still come for follow-up with him and his staff. That is crucial recovery process not just as a result of the surgey but as you learn a new way of life. HE IS THE BEST!

My entire experience with Dr Andrei was great! Everyone is so helpful and nice. Even getting ready for surgery, I was extremely nervous and everyone made me feel comfortable the dr. came in to see me before the surgery began , everyone that was in the room came in and introduced themselves before hand so i was more than comfortable when it was time for surgery. Over all my experience was great here with Dr. Andrei.

My first impresssion of Dr. Andrei was sincerity, devotion and love for the work he is doing. As time went on I began to learn more about him and his staff. Dr. Andrei and his staff compliment one another because they are so passsioinate and excited about the contribution they are making in the effort to helping people get healthy.

I never noticed a difference in care from before or after surgery. They are devoted to making sure everything is fine and you are recovering well. I received a number of calls after surgery to make sure I was recovering well. When the staff calls, you feel as though you are talking to family because you have created a bond with them and that they are genuinely concerned. It is an amazing feeeling.

Dr. Andrei and his staff are always available to you whenever you have questions, concerns or require some inspiration. They go beyond the call of duty and do it with a good heart. I have never experienced anything like this before at a physician's office. Dr. Andrei and his staff have set the standard for optimum patient care and I am so blessed to have them.
My overall rate of Dr. Andrei and his staff is that if you are thinking about bariatric surgery and looking for a surgeon, Dr. Andrei is the best there is. He has a great bedside manner and knows his craft. I am so happy that he did my surgery. Thank you Dr. Andrei, I love you.

EVERYBODY WAS VERY NICE AND INFORMATIVE

I struggled with my weight for years and finally made a decision to make a change that would increase my chances of living longer and healthier I was recommended to come see Dr. Andrei through a friend of a friend and the experience and knowledge received has been life changing. My new born day was 4-1-2010 and I have dropped a total of 32 lbs. since then I am looking forward
to the smaller things in life and I feel as if though I am on my way in the right direction.

Dr. Andrei provides excellent care. He takes the time to thoroughly answer al lyour questions without rushing you. His staff is also fantastic to deal with. Their follow up is superb.

from the day of my surgery iam so far please with how i feel but with the help of web sites and others that have done the same i know this will be a sucess for me.

Dr. Andrei and his staff are awesome. They have provided me with support since I began this process several months ago. I have lost several pounds since my pre op visits and I am very happy with the way my journey is going. Muy surgery was on March 22nd and it went so well that I could not believe I had even had surgery! I am so happy that I chose Dr. Andrei and would recommend anyone looking into bariatric surgery to see him. The support is phenomonal, and I am very happy I made the decision I did.
