David C. Voellinger Bariatric Surgeon MD,FACS, FASMBS

'MY FIRST IMPRESSION OF DR. DAVID VOELLINGER WAS WOW!!!!! I WAS TOTALLY IMPRESSED. I LEFT HIS OFFICE WITH THE BEST FEELING IN THE WORLD. HE IS SUCH A VERY CARING

My first impression was he was straight forward and busy. :) When I went n after approval he was happy, explained things further and was very nice. During the procedure and the recovery time in the hospital, he visited me every day as well as a good portion of his staff and has a terrific bedside manner. I would recommend him to anyone considering to have this surgery. He is terrific.

Everyone at Southeast Bariatrics has been wonderful in trying to help locate my missing file (which was to be transfered from the Presbyterian Bariatric Center to Southeast Bariatrics and never showed up...it is now completely MIA). Steffney, Julie and Pamela were extremely friendly and helpful. I enjoyed meeting Dr. Voellinger and truly feel that he has a passion for what he does. He is very through (he requires a little more pre-op than some other drs.) But, I think he tries to provide each patient the most opportunity for success.

Dr. V seemed very competent and friendly. He was patient and answered all of our questions candidly. The office staff seems very friendly and helpful. I'm looking forward to the next steps!

Doctor Voellinger is a great surgeon.... He sticks with you and makes sure that what needs to be done is done! His staff is also excellent!!! I would rate him top notch!!

My first impression of Dr V was that he was a very sincere doctor who cared about his patients. He took the time to tell me the in's out's and good and ugly of it all. NOT to scare me but that I was well informed! The staff were very nice! They have gone out of their way to help me with issues. They have a wonderful program for both pre and post ops. I'm on hold right now TFN but when I am able to have this surgery I will be seeing Dr V again.
He's a blessing!!

My first impression of Dr. Voellinger was a good one. He appeared to have a warm personality. His office staff Jessica was wonderful throughout my whole process. She helped and made sure I had all my paperwork in. His nurse Julie also was very helpful too when she received my paperwork and getting my surgery date. I just had my surgery on 9/30/05 and had my first followup visit on 10/12/05. My second visit is on 10/26/05.
My personal rating for Dr. V. on a scale of 1 to 10 is a 10 so far.
I will do a followup as time goes on.

I met with several doctors in the area before I picked Dr. V. He is a wonderful person to talk with. He seems like is concerned about you and what is best for you. I had the lap-band others made me feel that wasn't the way to go. I didn't feel comfortable with the other surgery options and Dr. V said this is a starting point. So that made me feel good knowing he cared about my concerns. The surgery went well and I am feeling great. I would highly recommend him to anyone who needed a good doctor. Bobbie his nurse is just the best. She knows her stuff being a WLS patient herself. She makes you feel right at home. The whole office if great. The one and only thing that is bad is the wait...when you go for an appt you are more then likely going to wait @ 30 mins. But to me it's worth it know that the level of care I get is just as important as the next person. Thanks to Dr V for changing my life.

I have seen Dr Voellinger once but that was enough time to see his is truly concerned about his patients. I felt like a person not just a number while I was there and every time I have called his office ( which has been quite a bit!). His office staff is especially helpful and don't seem to get upset if you call with questions. The aftercare is a major part of the program and he lets you know that up front. I was told the risks of surgery and feel I have more risks health wise if I don't have the surgery! So far I give him and his entire staff an A. I was concerned about the time it took to get a responce with a surgery date. It took 2 weeks before my info was sent to my insurance company, and I finally called my insurance co and they said I could give them the information over the phone. I was approved within 2 days after that call. It took 2 weeks once I had heard I was approved to get a phone call. I do understand that they were waiting for his surgery schedule for the new month and I was his first one for the month of August

I have done my whole journey, and just met Dr. Voellinger, I think he is really nice.
His staff is fantastic.
So far there is nothing to say bad about anyone there.
