Valeriu E. Andrei MD Bariatric Associates Bariatric Center
I would recommend Dr.Andrei to anyone whom is interested in having any kind of bastric surgery. He is an excellent doctor whom cares about his patients and will answer any questions or concerns you may have.Dr.Andrei gets an A+ in my book.
I have been with Dr. Andrei for the last 5 years. Being a healthcare provider I researched various surgeons before making my choice. I appreciated the throughness and attention to detail displayed by Dr. Andrei. In addition, Dr. Andrei's care and compassion was an added plus. I had originally had the lap band procedure and just recently the gastric bypass. Dr. Andrei has always been attentive, caring and professional throughout my journey. His assistance with getting me approved for both surgeries was exceptional. Besides all that he has done in order to prepare me for the surgery, his follow up post op is the best that I know in my experience. His office staff is an added plus. I have called frequently for assistance and/or questions. THe staff are always quick to assist and frequently call to just check in. I would highly recommend Dr. Andrei for anyone pursuing bariatric surgery.
My first impression of Dr. Andrei was very positive. When I spoke with his staff on the phone they were very professional. They listened to my concerns and answered all my questions. I am a true believer that your first impression means alot. I love Dr. Andrei and his staff. They are so nice and understanding. Throughout my process I was very nervous of not know ing what to expect and what to expect. The days leading up to my surgery I must of called the office a million times with questions. Although I did my research it just made me more confortable talking to Dr. Andrei's staff. On my reborn date, I was extremly nervous. I cried, prayed, prayed and cried. I was more concerned about the staff at the surgery center than myself.I wanted to make sure everyone was well awake and they were. I did have some discomfort after surgery but now it is 3 weeks after my surgery and I feel great. When I walked into this office I was 230pds and 2 weeks after the surgery I was 206pds. I just want to be healthy and Dr. Andrei, Pamela and his staff is making that possible.
Dr.Andrei is the best surgeon I ever had. He cares about his job. He also cares about the pacients. He is always calling to see if you are okay and if you need anthing. The office staff are very hard working and very friendly! I would rate Dr. Andrei and his staff from 1-10, 10+. I will recommend Dr. Andrei to anyone that is willing to get surgery! May God bless him and may he continue helping other people that are dealing with obesity problems!
I knew I would like Dr. Andrei after my first docrors appt with him. His offcie staff was very friendly and helful in answering my many questions, even when I keep asking the same questions over and over again.rnrnI was referred to this office by a forn=mer patient and was amazed how how the lap band surgery transformed her body. Everything she told me was true about Dr. Andreis bedside manner. I have never had a surgeon call me personally to ask how I was doing. I would receommend this office group to anyone wanting to lose weight. On a scale of 1 to 10, I rate Dr. Andrei an 11.rnrnBy the way, my surgery was 8/13/09 and today is 8/17/09 and I lave lost 10 pounds. Yeah!!!!
My initial impression was fantastic, I was weary about the entire process, however when I called the office they were so kind and warm, to my surprise after expressing some concern Dr. Andrei himself was on the phone, comforting and so pleasant, it brang a wave of relief. From my initial visit, everyone in the staff was warm and compassionate, which is so important with such a big life changing decision. He was straight and honest, which is important, every questions and hesitation was answered and assured. My surgery day was upon me and again everything was so pleasant it was easy, the staff called everyday to ensure I was progressing and had no complications. I feel amazing and it's only been a week. I loved the nutrionational classes which are part of Dr. Andrei's program, they provided such insight and plenty of information to not only be more successful, but to be confident and achieve total and utter success.rnrnAnyone planning on bariatric surgeon, Dr. Andrei is the one to see. I had called a few doctors and no one was as courteous, professional and reassuring!!! Definitely a glowing recommendation to any and all.
