Valeriu E. Andrei MD Bariatric Associates Bariatric Center

ON the day of my surgery, I was very nervous cause you never know what could happened. But after it was done everything was fine. Dr Andrei is a very good surgeon and I would recommend him to anyone. Who is considering doing the Gastric band. The staff are very nice and they will help you to accomplish your goal. But you also have to do your part, because it is not a easy job.

i had a great experience at the surgery center. i was a little nervous at first, but it was nice and clean and the staff there was wonderful. dr. andrei was waiting for me and made me feel great before the surgery. i experienced no pain. i am very happy with everything. pamela and the staff at the office are great.

The surgery went a lot easier than I was expecting. I was very nervous but now that the initial surgery is done I have so much to look forward to. Dr. Andrei is a great surgeon.

If you a thinking of getting WLS Dr. Andrei is the only one I would go to. The caring from him and his staff can not be outdone. I first had the lapband in back in 8/2007. I lost over 100lbs. After such a great lost I thought I din't have to follow up. I began to gain wieght and after 6 months went back to Dr. Andrei. He did not make me feel bad and told me he would help me with what ever I decided to do. I had the Band removed and bypass on 8/14/2009. I am still learning about the bypass but his staff is following me closely (thanks Pam). I would not go to another surgeon if I was paid.

My surgery went well, very satisfied with Dr. Andrei, his staff, st. Barnabus and my care. Dr. Andrei has great care and concern and most of all follow up for his patients, and I NEVER FELT ALONE.

MY experience was fantastic!!!! DR. Andrei's Team, incredible!!! Wished I had the surgery sooner, years sooner I feel great and energetic and with hope that I will be leading a healthy and happy life Thank You Dr. Andrei and your Team!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

My initial impression of Dr. Andrei was that he was very through in his initial meeting with me. He wanted to make sure that both you and him are comfortable with the type of surgery you were having and he also made sure to explain, in detail, each surgery to better assist in your decision. He and his office staff make you feel very comfortable, almost like an extended family, and each staff member is pretty involved in the process. After my surgery, I received a phone call daily just to see how I was doing, which helped so much in my recovery. I would recommend Dr. Andrei to anyone who is thinking about doing any type of weight loss surgery.

I was always over weight after my grandparents passed away and i wanted to change that. I spoke to a friend that had the surgery who guided me to Dr. Andrei. I was told by a lot of people that i was too young and that i could lose the weight on my own. I knew that i wouldn't have been able to do it without help. I spoke to people i was close with and decided to come to the first doctors appointment and see what i could do. My mom came with me and was very supported. i decided to go through with it and coudlnt wait for my surgery date. Now 2 weeks after the surgery i feel better then ever. i Lost 9 lbs and havent looked back. Im excited to see what happens in my upcoming future. I want to be healthier and look better. Dr. Andrei was a great help and will forever be someone that has help me imporve my life. This surgery really did save my life.

Let me say first that the staff and Dr Andrei were wonderful in helping me get everything together before surgery.They were on top of everything.Dr Andrei was very caring before and after surgery.I would recommend Dr Andrei and his staff to anyone.

On the day I went to Dr. Andrei's office, I was very surprized with his staff. Everyone was so nice and welcoming. When I met with Dr. Andrei, I found him to be very understanding to all my questions and needs. He went over everything I would need to know and more. If I had to give Dr. Andrei and his staff a rating. I would say they are a 10 out of 10.
