Dr. Higa and his staff were always very friendly and seemed genuinely concerned for my health and well-being. He was very accomodating with my scheduling and never made me feel rushed. I chose Dr. Higa because of his extensive experience with Laproscopic RNYs and for his exceptional track record. I had surgery on October 19 and experienced no complications. However, I am confident that had I developed a problem I couldnt have been in better hands.

Dr. Higa's vital charisma and personable warmth communicate his confidence and compassion. His office is organized and pleasant; his staff is professional and kind. My insurance approval took less than two weeks. He spent over an hour talking with me during my consultation, answering all of my questions. He mentioned all of the possible complications of the surgery, including social/psychological. Additionally, when Dr. Higa met my husband at his presentation that evening, he took the time to talk to us both, easing my husband's fears about my upcoming surgery, as well.

I really like Dr. Boone. He is very competent and thorough with a quiet, reserved
sort of manner. He is very responsive to all questions and after surgery, personally responds
quickly to any concerns or problems you might have. I would definitely recommend him
to anyone considering wls.

Dr. Boone is one of the most professional and caring physicians I have encountered. The intire staff at Valley Surgical Center in Fresno are understanding and friendly (they even have some "chubby ones working there". Dr. Boone NEVER gave me a diet to follow (after first few weeks of surgery), but instead said everyone was diferent. I tried alot of different foods and have found the ones that work for me. I had my surgery in April have lost 60 pounds to date, and would like to drop 20 more. I attend our support groups once a month and find them very helpful. If I had to come up with one problem about Dr. B???? I guess it would be that he is pretty cute, and I think much younger than me. ( so maye this isn't bad)

My surgeon is a very kind and gentle man. He never made me feel like he had to hurry off to take care of something else. While in the hospital he checked on me twice a day. He is great.

Dr. Higa is confident in his surgical abilities, and he has a great sense of humor. For more information on his laproscopic WLS visit his website at www.valleysurgical.com
