Antonio Coirin Bariatric Surgeon M.D., F.A.C.S.

I have not met Dr. Coirin yet. I have met the PA and she is awesome.

I have been to Dr. Coirin's office three times. Once for a consult, the other for a pre-op and the third for my post-op. Neither of those times did I see Dr. Coirin. I met Dr. Coirin about an hour before my surgery. I was glad to see he was a normal man, as I was putting my life into a man's hands that I have never even seen before. This is normally not like me. He was sweet and to the point. The following day he came to my room to check on me. He probably was there for one minute. The following day was very similar. He asked if I was doing ok, and then said ok well I will release you today. I said ok and that was the end of that. There weren't too many words exchanged. He was busy and I was tired..guess that's just how things go.

I have not personally met Dr. Coirin, yet. I attended a seminar on July 11, 2007, where he was the presenter; he seemed energetic and had a great sense of humor. He was very informative and answered questions that were asked.

My first of impression of him was he was very informative and then very funny. Then I seen him 2 minutes before surgery and 2 minutes twice after and thats it. Everything else is done by his Physicans Ass. And she is great and I assume its because he does surgeries back to back all day and some follow-up in the morning with patients but it would have been nicer to have had a bit more of his attention. I think he has a great office staff...I think that they are very busy cause there are so many people that are in process of having this done that they are spead a little thin but...with a couple of phone calls to keep you on the forefront of their minds its all good. I would defintely refer patients to him and infact my hubby and niece will be seeing him and hopefully having the gastric as well. They have a wonderful before and after program to set up up for sucess. And I think that he definetly pounds the risks of the surgery in your head so you know what your up against...but realisticly speaking most prolems occur from people not taking their vitamins and keeping themselves well hydrated and thats what can lead to death. ( Just do as your told and take care of yourself and the rest is a cinch.) I would rate Dr. Coirin a 10...he is the most capable doctor I know and in the short time I spent with him he was pheonominal.

Havent meet him yet

I was an employee at DHM in Manteca Ca. Back in 2002, when he first started to do the wls. Watching him with his patients was wounderful. Such a great beside manner. rnrnI had no comps. and went home in two days. Office staff are great. They have a wounderful aftercare and before. Over all A+++++++++++++++++. Great Doc.

Dr. Coirin is a caring Dr. He answered my question's in everyday language that I could understand. He came and saw me everyday that I was in the hospital, his staff is fantastic and very supportive and caring. Just fantastic to have a Dr and his office staff and personel that care. rnRate 100%

I first met Dr. Coirin at the orientation that I attended. He was very good at explaining the procedure and he threw in a little humor at times which impressed me. His office staff is great, they are very helpful when I call and I have never been ignored when I have a question or problem. The aftercare program is very structured and is detailed out in their handbook that you get. I can answer most questions by going back to this great reference. I usually see Diane his PA, and she has been very helpful and informative. I chose Dr. Coirin after talking to many people in the health care profession and he was the one whose name came up almost always as their choice if they were going to have the surgery. I would recommend him anytime! The only negative I could say is that I have had very little contact with Dr. Coirin himself, have only talked to him two or three times...once before I went into surgery and then once or twice in the hospital after surgery. Oh, and one more negative...his office scales weigh heavier than mine! These impressions are from my personal experience and I am making no statements about what others have experienced.

I HAVE TO SAY I LOVED MY SURGEON HE WAS VERY NICE. AND HE ALWAYS CAME AND CHECKED ON ME WHILE IN RECOVERY. I WAS VERY PLEASED WITH HIM.

I really like this doctor and heard many good things about him before the surgery from other people who had him. Sandy who works in his office is really nice and helpful. They are really supportive. In the hospital I saw him every day and showed really good bed side maner. I would recamend him to others. The only things is I hope to see him when I go to his office and not so much of his PA.
