Aaron was a fabulous surgeon! He was very hands on, friendly and warm. He did an excellent job and I have had no complications or issues since my surgery 6 months ago. I highly recommend Dr. Baggs to anyone at Kaiser who is considering this surgery. He was very straightforward and honest.
Dr Baggs is a very nice and caring md. He genuinly cares about his patients. His staff is nice and no one made me feel uncomfortable in any way. He is very aware of the importance of aftercare and he did an excellent job of addressing the risks of surgery. I would definitly recommend him.
I HAVEN'T MET DR BAGGS YET, BUT I HAVE MY PRE OP CONSULT SCHEDUALED WITH HIM ON DECEMBER 1ST. I MET DR PARK LAST WEEK AT KAISER IN RICHMOND AND I LIKE HOW STRAIGHT FORWARD SHE IS ABOUT THE GOOD, BAD AND UGLY OF WLS. I ALSO LEARNED THAT KAISER HAS A 2 SURGEON POLICY IN THE OR. I'VE HEARD VERY GOOD THINGS ABOUT BOTH DRS.
UPDATE... i MET DR BAGGS ON THE 1ST OF DEC. I'M MORE THAN PLEASED! HE IS STRAIGHT FORWARD, YET CARING. I AM NOW SCHEDUALED FOR LAP RNY ON THE 27TH OF DEC.
I was completely impressed with dr. Baggs. He made sure that I understood the risks of having surgery done. I really like how he has a great sense of humor, but knows when its time to be serious about whats going on! I am so happy that he is going to be my surgeon. I have only heard the best of news from people about him. I must say it is nice when they remember you as a person instead of being just another patient :)
In my experience so far, Dr. Baggs has been very knowledgable. Has answered every question. He has been very informative on the pros and cons of this surgery. He seems compassionate to his patients. He encourages you to bring a support person - if married, bring your spouse. His staff has been encouraging and sensitive.
*UPDATE* 7/12/05 - Dr. Baggs is terrific. Very compassionate, personable, and all those things that you would look for in a sincere human being, one that you would be comfortable placing your life into their hands.
I really liked Dr. Baggs. He was easy going, answered all my husbands questions, and was easy to talk to. Very personable! He was very upfront about the risks associated with this surgery.
I had complete confidence in his ability and knew I was in the best of hands!
I came through surgery great and went home the next day.
The office staff at Richmond are great. I loved my case manager, Mary and the NP Pat Ridgeway. They were both so easy to talk to and personable.
My first impression of Dr. Baggs was great. I have heard good things about him from a co-worker who had the surgery years ago. He did address the risks of the surgey and made me feel very comfortable. The staff at the Richmond office is great, they are very informative and friendly.
dr. baggs was great i loved him i had seen him at the orientation and thought id love for him to be my dr... he was very straight forward and ddint pull any punches but yet he was very tactfull about it.. he was veery good about letting my know the risk of surgery and how things could happen....i havent dalt with the office staff only one person and she was great...i think he is great ........ both his bedside mannor and his sergical competience r great......i would referr my friends to him in a heartbeat>>>>
My 1st impression presurgery he scared me he spoke about the surgery at an orientation class I went to an really did not pull any punches about the risk of surgery an was very professional. When I had my 1 on 1 appointment with him I liked him alot he was very personable and answered all my questions. I am a little older than many who have the surgery so the risk is greater but I have confidence in his skill as a surgeon and am anxious to start my new life post surgery.
My experience with the staff in the Bariatric unit at Kaiser Richmond so far has been very good all are friendly and very encouraging. Overall my experience has been great pre surgery.
