The first time I met Dr. Coirin was at the seminar he seems to be someone who really cares about what he is doing. I felt very comfortable with him. So far that is been the only time that I have talked to him, I have my pre-op appointment tomorrow (12/12/06) and I assume that I will get to talk to him more then. His staff though is great, they are all very helpful from, the front desk to the PA's, especially Sandy (insurance) they all take the time to help you with what ever question you have.

He is incredibly kind and thoughtful. Still hasn't changed. Staff is great. Nothing I like least. He's fabulous! Huge on the aftercare...I'm in Kaiser now...so I miss him. Very structured aftercare. 10 our of 10. Both surgical and bedside competence are vital!rnrnLove him and thank him every day for my new life.

Dr Coirin was the speaker at the seminar I attended. He was VERY knowledgable about any and everything! I feel I can trust him completely. He answered all my questions and displayed good visuals to assist in explaining the surgery. He covered everything from before, during and after surgery. He had someone from his staff there to take paperwork and she was helpful in the area of insurance information. I will update more later.rn*********************************rnDr Coirin was wonderful beyond words! While other patients saw their doctor's PAs...he was sure to come in to see me every single morning! He took time to listen to me and pay attention to my concerns and answer them with confidence. I was very anxious in the OR just before they sedated me and HE came to my side and calmed me down! I don't have enough nice things to say about him! I KNOW I chose the right doctor for me!

He really cares I've had many Drs but none like Dr. coirin he's the best id like to think of him as my angel I had to go back for gallbladder surgery well i didnt know it was my gallbladder i thought stomach problems when I went into the emergency room he had the nurses order every test possible to get to the problem he kept my pain down kept me full of fluids and vitamins during my hospital stay thank you Dr. coirin your the best.rnrnTammy

I saw Dr. Coirin for the first time at a seminar that he and Dr. Coates give regarding Gastric Bypass. I thought he was very knowledgable and seem very capable after hearing all of the statistics relating him doing the surgery. After that I saw him at a Fashion Show they did for WLS patients who have done soooo well. I realized then that he really cares about his patients. Since then I have been to his office twice but have not had the opportunity to meet with him. That's okay though because his staff and PAs have been so great and helpful. I've all the questions I've had answered and I feel 100% confident with him doing my surgery.rnrnDr. Coirin came to talk to me when I was being prep'd for surgery. He was very kind and made me feel completely at ease. He spoke with my family and I felt really good going into surgery. After surgery he came in and checked on me. He kept me informed and told me how the surgery went. The day of my discharge he came in and told me that I was doing great and he would be able to let me leave the hospital. He was very nice and I felt really good about him having done my surgery. In fact the pain medication pump was stopped the day after surgery and I haven't taken any type of pain medication since, even liquid OTC. My scars will be so tiny and barely detectable Dr. Coirin is an excellent and caring surgeon.

Dr. Coirin is an excellent doctor! The entire staff is very helpful and they really care and root for us before and after surgery. Dr Coirin's surgical competence and bedside manner are top notch! I would recommend him to anyone who is thinking of having WLS.

I liked Dr. Coirin from the start.rnGot better.rnStaff is cool.rnI haven't found anything to not like yet.rnThat he is a caring Doctor.rnAfter care is still being stressed!rnYes aftercare is structured.rnMade sure I knew all the risks.rn100%rnAll GREAT!!

Dr. Coirin is very well informed about this surgery. He is very nice considerate and very helpful. He was recomended to me be many people. His office staff is always willing to help no matter what the problem. They too are knowledgeable.

I went to the informational seminar and Dr. Coirin was the speaker I was very pleased with the way he told us every detail even the part about death he was very open and honest. when I turned in my packet I had not chosen a Dr. but right after I made sure it would be him, the staff has been so good they try to answer you question right on the phone if not able they call you back. The one importain thing that Dr.Coirin stresses is to get up and walk dont over due just move. I think he is the best and I tell everyone I know that is thinking of having this surgey to just listen to him hes very smart and caring, hes in this to help you not himself and that count when your looking for the best Dr.
