I got to admit, I wasn't sure about Dr. Lowe at first. He is fairly new at the practice and you are already scared to death from all the horror stories. He did assure me that Dr. Melkonian would be in the operating room with him and that is what made me feel better. Everyone in Dr. Lowe's office was exceptionally nice. My impression of Dr. Lowe now is that he is the greatest Doctor and I would recommend him to anyone. He is very sensative and hears you out instead of just pretending to listen just to get you out of his office for the next patient. He did come by my hospital room and check on me to make sure everything was going ok. In all I would rate him on a scale of 1-10 he is a 10. He did a great job on my surgery and i had no complications at all during or after the surgery. THANKS DR. LOWE!!!
He was very very nice and reassuring. I was even more relieved to know that during my surgery Dr. Melkonian will be present. The staff is very nice. I really liked his nurse, so was so sweet. He really stressed the importance of changing my lifestyle after surgery. And I really liked the fact that he stressed that he would always be my doctor. Any pains or complications to call him immediately. He definitely addressed the risks of the surgery. But like I told him, being morbidly obese is a slow death anyway. I would rate him a 10....he is excellent.
I had my first consult with Dr. Lowe today. He is wonderful! He answered all my questions before I could even ask them....I was afraid that he was kind of young, but felt completely at ease after meeting him...he is very thorough, and kind. His staff seemed nice and extremely efficient..no complaints at all from me! He emphasized aftercare and its importance...and I quote "I'm going to be your surgeon for life!" He told me that even 5-10 years down the line, if i have any kind of stomach pains/problems and have to go to the emergency room..tell them to call him immediately. He addressed all the risks involved with the surgery and I would rate him a 12, on a scale from 1-10! Will update again after surgery to comment on his bedside manner!
