Adrian Dan Bariatric Surgeon MD, FACS, FASMBS

My experiences with Dr. Dan have been wonderful. He is kind and really cares about his patients. I researched most bariatric programs in NE OH and Dr. Dan's team was the best. He is a true professional. He was so reassuring and I always felt confident in his abilities. His bariatric team is a great bonus too. Everyone works together so the process is efficient. You are the center of a great wheel where your nutrition, psych, exercise and medical professionals focus. My care didn't end after the surgery. The followup care is so complete. Whenever I had a question I always received a callback in a very timely manner. My surgery went so well with zero complications. Dr. Dan makes sure that you are as healthy as possible before the surgery. The education and prep before surgery helped alleviate my fears by being well informed about what would have before during and after surgery. I made the best decision of my life by choosing Dr. Dan and the Summa Bariatric team.

I had Gastric Bypass Surgery May 22nd 2011 and Dr Adrian Dan did the surgery and he was incredible from his bed side manners to his after surgery could not get a more caring and honest doctor in the world I think. I own 2 businesses and I know how to treat people and he is top knotch. Was 340 lbs and I am down to 217 for a total loss of 123 Lbs. Yea!!!!! Dr. Dan you save lives, Thanks.

Dr. Dan...he's heaven sent! He has changed my entire life. He and his entire team are professional, full of knowledge and willing to answer any and all questions. They want you to completely understand all the risks and changes involved in having WLS. When making such a huge decision it is important to feel confident in your surgical team and with Dr. Dan and the Summa Bariatric Center, that was easy for me. I worked the program which included classes on nutrition and exercise, quit smoking (Dr. Dan requires this) and did everything Dr. Dan and his team told me to. I had my 6 month follow up today and I am down 75 lbs. I went on vacation last week and rode a roller coaster for the first time in over 10 years. I played football on the beach with everyone else and was actually able to keep up. I could never list all the ways my life has changed. I tell people all the time I never realized how bad I felt physically/emotionally until now when I look back. They say hind sight is 20/20... that is so true. I could never thank Dr. Dan enough for giving me my life back. This surgery helped me take control of my life and today I can honestly say...I am happy!

I am a patient of Dr. Dan. I have been very impressed with my care from him and his staff. He has been very thorough with explaining to me about the different options and risks concerning weight loss surgery. I felt very knowledgeable about the surgery I choose (RNY). There are classes on nutrition, exercise, and pre and post op care. They let you know that your care does not end after surgery and that they are there for any future help or questions. Dr. Dan and his entire staff are so helpful, compassionate, and friendly.

It has only been a month since my RNY surgery and I have already lost 40 pounds. I am on my way to a healthy new me thanks to Dr. Dan. I would highly recommend him to anyone considering weight loss surgery.

Dr. Dan is awesome! He truely cares about the rest of your life. He took the time to talk to me and always eased my fears. He definately took the time to explain what procedure was right for me and why. He would never steer a patient in the wrong direction, he is very upfront and honest.He is also a very down to earth Doctor, he will laugh with you and hold your hand if you need it. He is young and really knows his stuff. He has completed hundreds of bariatric surgeries and is very knowledgeable. Go see Dr. Dan at Summa Bariatric Center in Akron Ohio

Hello, my name is LaTracia S. and I am a patient of Dr. Dan...I had my surgery 13 months ago and I have lost 108 lbs. to date. I am so excited about my weight loss!!! I can do things now that I could not do before. I feel like a brand new person!. Summa's Bariatric Center is an awesome place to have your surgery at. The entire staff is very caring and supportive of your needs. Dr. Dan is a great surgeon. He has taken very good care of me pre-op and post-op! I have also had the privilege of seeing Dr. Z on a visit, and he is just as caring as Dr. Dan. I highly recommend this center to anyone who is considering any level of weight loss surgery! You will be in great hands!!!

Dr. Dan is very caring, took time to answer any questions, and in my opinion was as thorough as could possibly be. The entire team at Summa Health System is very thorough and address every question every step of the way. They even sent me flowers in the hospital! I was fully prepared for my surgery and what would happen afterwards before I went in the hospital. The BEST surgeon and team anywhere!

Today I met w/ dr. Dan for my 18 mth. visit since my laproscoprc by-pass surgery. I've lost 137 lbs. thus far. For any one concidering surgery, I highly recommend it. I have to admit that I was nervous at first but it was the best thing I've ever done in my life, thanks to Dr. Dan. Not only has my health improved 100% but I look and feel like a million bucks! Thank you Dr. Dan and your highly qualified staff. Might I add his bed side manner and pleasant personality mad me feel really special, he truley cares for his patients needs.

Dr. Dan and the entire Summa Bariatric team are really wonderful. I was kept well informed as I began my journey. They provide you with very detailed but easily understandable documentation as well as make themselves readiily available to answer every possible question that you may think of. His bedside manner is superb. Know that when you chose him as your surgeon that you are getting one of the best and that he genuinely cares about your health throughout the process and afterwards.

The decision to have gastric bypass surgery was by far one of the scariest I've ever made. However, the process used by Dr. Dan and the Summa Bariatric Care Team includes an abundance of information, an openness to questions of any kind, and a genuine caring for the patient. All of this made the events leading up to, during and post-surgery far better than I had imagined it would be. I am now 6 months post-surgery, have lost about 90 pounds, and feel the best that I have felt in years. Definitely, one of the best decisions I've ever made.
