I think Dr. Moazzez is an excellent doctor and very knowledgeable about the lapband procedure. I'm actually very grateful that he requires so many tests because he was able to find a problem long before I ever had any symptoms. So although having all this test and visits are a pain, I would gladly do them again in a heartbeat. rnrnPam is also a terrific person and will gladly answers any questions you may have.rnrnSurgery was on 3/31/08 and I ended up staying overnight in the hospital, but the attention I received from the nurses at Fair Oaks Hospital was outstanding. They really took great care of me and tended to my every need.
He's an excellent surgeon, he explained everything in detail. Looking forward to follow-up with him.
Dr. Moazzez and his staff are wonderful. He is a very talented and professional surgeon. I felt very informed throughout the entire process. The Inova Fair Oaks Hospital Bariatrics unit definitely deserves their rating as a Center of Excellence. They have an excellent pre-op and post-op education series.
Dr. Moazzez and his staff are all very caring and compassionate. The seminar I attended was informative and enlightening. They have a great pre-op and aftercare program.
Although I haven't had my surgery yet, I am very pleased with my choice of surgeons. Dr. Moazzez has been great. When I had my initial appointment, he remembered me from the seminar. His office staff, especially Pam, have been fabulous. She is great at answering any questions I have, as well as returning my phone calls quickly.
Dr. Moazzez is part of a very structured program run out of iNOVA FairOaks Hospital. I attended a seminar required by Dr. Moazzez, which he happened to be conducting himself. Even though it was on a Saturday morning, he was very patient in answering everyone's questions after giving his prepared presentation.rnrnDr. Moazzez's appointments aren't always on time; however, this is probably due to him taking a great deal of time with each patient and making sure all their questions are answered, all their labs and tests are scheduled/have been done, etc. I never got a sense of being rushed by Dr. Moazzez.rnrnBoth during pre-op and hospital care after the surgery, Dr. Moazzez stopped by several times to answer not only my questions, but that of my spouse. He has such a wonderful, pleasant bedside manner and made me feel like his only patient.rnrnI'm now starting the structured aftercare program. While things may change over time, I have had no complications and I have nothing but fabulous things to say about Dr. Moazzez and \"Super Pam\" of his staff.
My first impression of Dr. Mo was from the seminar I attended. He seemed very confident of his skill. His materials were very easy to understand and he didn't sugar-coat anything. His office staff is very pleasant. I was always able to get through to someone and everyone did what they could to help. The bariatric \"team\" is well structured and I'm sure I will need them post-op. They also seem to know their stuff very well. I haven't spent much time with Dr. Mo (just the initial visit and then the pre-op), so I've not had too much time to form an impression of him. He seems somewhat serious (and I use humor, so I didn't get any of that from him). I'd rather have a surgeon that is fantastically skilled than a \"nice guy\"! More info AFTER the surgery!
I first saw Dr. Moazzez at his seminar, I went with a list of questions all which were answered during the seminar. After the seminar first thing monday I called right at 9 to make my first appointment. His staff was very nice told me to download a history form online to bring to my appointment. Out front of the office there is a vallet to take and park your care thank goodness cause luck would have it it was snowing outside. The staff was wonderful took my info and got me to the back , I met with the doctor and while I was back there Pam was in the office talking to my insurance. Dr.Moazzez talked to me about all the different risks and was sure to make sure that I understand surgery is in no way the easy way out and that my succes depends on my complance afterwards. No surgarcoating anything. They have a aftercare program they expect all patients to participate in. When I finished talking to the doctor I came out and Pam told me I had been Approved! I got my date before I left. So far I am very happy I will keep everything updated
Dr. Moazzez is kind and knowledgable. I have never had surgery before but I feel safe in the care of Dr. M. His staff is so helpful and the doctors that he sends you to have the same bedside manner as he does. The folks over at Inova Fair Oaks are great as well. My surgery is scheduled for December 26, 2007 and I am confident that things will go well. I can't wait to start this journey to the me I have always known I could be!
