Christopher D. Joyce Bariatric Surgeon M.D., F.A.C.S.

Dr. Joyce and his staff are very nice. He is easy to talk to and listens to what you say. He appears to be very organized. I feel very comfortable with him. He has excellent follow up care.

Dr. Joyce is to the point, very friendly and you can tell he cares about you being informed. He doesnt beat around the bush and I like that. I am so happy that Dr. Joyce is my new surgeon. The old surgeon told me he wouldnt take medicare because they were a headache and never paid but I found out from Dr. Joyce and medicare that Medicare will pay almost 100% as long as your surgeon is part of a center of excellence. So much for my 1st surgeon being honest with me. Also, Dr Joyces' staff are so sweet. The clinic also offers you post-op exercise classes, nutritional classes is you need them, support groups and even a clothing exchange!!! More later!

I met Dr. Christopher Joyce for the first time and I was very impressed with his medical training. He really cared and took the time to listen to my problems. I feel I made the best choice in choosing him to do the surgery. I could only wish all doctors were like him and take the time to understand how people that are overweight really feel. We didnt ask to be this way. I give Dr.Joyce two thumbs up!

Dr. Joyce is wonderful. He is open and honest about surgery and surgical risks and results. He has been so supportive and continues to show his concern and support even 6 months post-op. The program that Dr. Joyce and his staff provide is excellent. You are not only taken care of pre-op and immediately post-op but are provided with quality care involving nutritional advice, exercise programs and emotional support for as long as you wish to receive these services. Compared to other programs that I have researched and heard about, Dr. Joyce and his staff rate far above all others! They have significantly helped me improve my quality of life!
That God for Dr. Joyce and all his wonderful staff!

Dr Joyce is a God-send. He is the most caring doctor I have seen. He is a perfectionist and that is a great attribute when choosing a surgeon. His staff is so supportive and caring. I feel like a member of the family when I visit. The program his office provides is very structured in eating and excercise requirements, plus they really expect you to follow it and offer to help you anyway they can. I know it works because my mom is 1 year post op from this same center and she has done awesome! Dr Joyce rates out of a scale 1 to 10 as a 15! He is very competent doctor and his bedside manner makes you feel at ease. I feel blessed to have had my surgery with Midwest Bariatrics!

My first impression of Dr. Joyce is that he knows what he is doing and cares very much about his patients. He has a very soft way about him that maked me feel secure. I think that he is a blessing! As for his staff, they are just amazing and I love them all. I couldnt now have done this without them!

They all discussed the surgery with me..the good the bad and the ugly. Aftercare is extensive with Dr. Joyce so you are not hanging on your own at all.

I would rate Dr. Joyce and his staff about 1,000,000 out of 10!!!

Dr. Joyce explained everything about this surgery. The risks involved, the importance of aftercare and follow-up visits.

He has an excellent bedside manner and his entire staff is excellent!

I want to thank everyone there who helped me make this life changing decision. You've given me my life back!!

Dr. Joyce has an excelent bedside manner. He immediately addressed my concerns and I felt comfortable with him from the start. In fact, everyone on the staff made me feel right at home. I felt like I had been comming into this office for years.
Dr. Joyce and his staff provided me with an abundance of information. We started with a class to discuss what WLS involves, what the risks are and what to expect over all. I was also required to attend classes with the Dietician.
My surgery went very well. There were some complications during surgery and Dr. Joyce addressed them right away. I am 1 month PO now, I have lost 25 pounds and feel terriffic! I am thrilled with my results! Dr Joyce and his staff have been there every step of the way to answer my questions and offer support!

Dr Joyce, and his staff have been very informative.. very supportive.. Dr Joyce himself seems to be a very pleasant man.. willing to answer any concerns that you have.. He has a very pleasing personality...
He makes you feel comfortable in his office..
His staff has been willing to answer any questions I have had... seeing as i live 7 hours away... they have tried to make everything as easy as possible...

My first impression of Dr. Joyce was "why is a pencil thin man doing this kind of work?" He is absolutely marvelous. He listens carefully to my questions. His staff is always willing to help. I have had my share of problems since RNY surgery and he has been there every step of the way. He has a very comprehensive program that includes, nutrition and exercise education.
