When I first met Dr Benbrahim I really liked him. He seemed a bit apprehensive because my insurance tends to deny these claims alot.. but we forged on! rnrnThe office staff has been very nice and Dr Benbrahim also works with a support group of dieticians, therapists and social workers who are all very nice. He has a good pre and post surgical program which I am very happy with. Especially Karen...she is the bomb! rnrnIn the hospital following the surgery Dr. Benbrahim was wonderful. He has a great bedside manner and always put me at ease. He answered any questions I asked without making me feel like I was pestering him and was always there if I needed him. He is super.rnrnAfter care is very important to Dr. Benbrahim and he also requests you attend the support groups his group hold every month. rnrnI am very happy that I chose Dr. Benbrahim to do my surgery. He, his staff, and the hospital he works with are all top notch!
Very friendly and made you feel like you were the only one that mattered to him.rnThe office staff is very helpful, and friendly.rnFuture patients should know that when they decide to have the by pass done that they would be in very good hands, and that everything will be done to be sure that your well being is the utmost inportant issue.rnThe after care is the best. A great support group. This group as helped me over come major issues, just being able to chat with people who feel or went throught it the same as you, makes the healing so much easier.rnI would give the whole group the highest mark possible. I could not begin to explain how much they have done for me.
My first impression of Dr. Benbrahim was I made the right choice and I got very lucky!Dr. Benbrahim is an excellent surgeon. He was so good at describing the procedure and he made me feel very comfortable about the whole thing. I kept thinking how blessed I was to have found him. His staff is very friendly and pleasant as well. I look forward to my appointments..Thank you Dr. Benbrahim!!
I liked him the very first time we met. As I've gotten to know him I discovered that he is very caring, is a good listener and concerned. He will not take anyone who has a BMI of over 50 or who is over 55 years old. His staff is excellent, Dennis who is the office program manager has been so supportative. I did a 6 month PCP supervised diet, kept being denied by CIGNA POS, and Dennis was there for every appeal and to convince the insurance doctors of the medical necessity. He has been a huge supporter and assistant in this process.
Dr. Benbrahim is having regular support group meetings at Midstate Medical Center, where he is started the program in April of 2004. The meetings are mostly for pre-op's with Diana and Chris always there. He is starting the post op support groups in January of 2005. The dietician from Mid State also attends meetings. Doctor Benbrahim has been excellent in all steps regarding my care. I see him once a month for the next 6 months. Then I see him at 9 and 12 months. I feel like I can call the office any time without any hassle.
