Aileen Takahashi Bariatric Surgeon M.D.

Dr. Takahashi was very informative, she explained things and answered questions not only from me but my two sisters who were with me. The office staff at the SouthBay Surgical Center are GREAT.

In my opinion, Dr. Takahashi is a health care professional who lacks compassion. I encouage anyone who is considering using her services to attend the support group meetings and to evaluate what she is offering versus another surgeon. This statement respresents my personal, disappointing experince with this surgeon. I am feeling foolish that I allowed myself to trust this surgeon and spend a year waiting for surgery. Of course, I am making no statement about the experience of others who may have sought the services of this surgeon.

Dr. T is a great surgeon, she is so sweet and listens to you. The staff is very helpful and encouragaung.

She is very straight forward. Answer's all question. I have only had 1 visit so far with the Surgeon. rnrn10/16: After my 1st meeting I thought maybe Dr. Takahashi was being straight forward because I wasn't asking any questions. But After researching the surgery for a whole entire year I had no questions for her I was prepared for what she was telling me & the fact I had to loose weight prior to the surgery. After today's meeting she is very funny & an open Dr. She answered my question regarding hernia's and was very thorough. She went over every detail of the surgery & her expectations of me the 1st day of surgery. along with my recovery after surgery. I enjoyed my conversation with her & have heard nothing but good things about her. I would recommend!!!!rnrnThe office staff is great available to you. Very friendly....
