Dr. Kam is very professional. He has a clean, sharp, honest look that gives a person an immediate impression that he is serious about his career choice. He made me feel comfortable and at ease the day of surgery. His confidence was appearent without arrogance. I feel that I made an excellent choice.
My first impression of Dr. Kam was that he was very knowledgable & seemed very honest. He presented the seminar that I attended and he sat with me for a consultation and explained the risks and advantages of the surgery. He was very friendly during the consultation. I didn't see Dr. Kam again until the day of my surgery. He sat down with my husband and I and went over everything again. I felt very comfortable with him. I was rather groggy in the hospital when he came to see me but overall I would have to say that Dr. Kam was wonderful! Great experience and I would definitely recommend him as a surgeon!
Very Very happy with Dr. Kam and the staff at Barix in Ypsilanti. Glad I made my decision to go with them. I would rate care A++
Well...it's 6/5/07 and I still think Dr. Kam is Awesome...I enjoyed my first check up he was very excited about my progress and I feel that I can tell him anything...a very genuine guy he really does care! He was truly a blessing to have as my surgeon!rnrnMy first impression of Dr. Kam was what a smart aleck...he has a great sense of humor! I felt very at ease and enjoyed his light joking manner, but he was very frank about the surgery. I feel that he is the best choice in my state for a surgeon...I have spoken to a few others. I think if I have to find a negative...the initial consultation is a bit hurried. I do realize that there are surgeries, seminars and checking in on patients, so I understand the brevity. I am looking forward to writing an even better review after my 4/25/07 surgery!
I had my consultation with Dr Kam on May 3rd. I liked his office staff they were really friendly! Dr Kam is very straight forward and blunt. I feel this is an important aspect as he doesn't make any false promises. I am looking forward to my approval!!!
WHEN I WALKED INTO THE BARIX CLINIC I FOUND EVERYONE TO BE EXTREMELY FRIENDLY, FROM THE RECEPTIONIST TO THE NURSES AND TO DR.KAM WHOM I THINK IS FANTASTIC. DR. KAM TELLS YOU LIKE IT IS HE TELLS YOU ALL OF THE BAD THAT COULD GO WITH ALL THE GOOD, I FEEL 100% COMFORTABLE WITH MY CHOICE OF HOSPITAL AND WITH DR. KAM. SO FAR OUT OF 10 I WOULD RATE THE CLINIC 10. WHILE AT BARIX FOR MY FIRST CONSULT I WAS ABLE TO VISIT A ROOM AND THEY ARE BEAUTIFUL, NO COMPARISON TO OUR HOSPITALS HERE IN THE HAMILTON AREA.
Dr Kam proved to be an excellent surgeon with excellent bedside manner. I found him to be meticulous. in my books he gets a 10/10rnrn
My first impression was that he was passionate about the surgery and his patients. I knew i would be in good hands from the first day i met him. He answered my questions honestly and I felt he was able to give me a lot of useful information. My impression only became stronger after the surgery. The office staff at Barix is amazing! They were all helpful and supportive! I would definately recommend Barix to anyone considering surgery. After care is very important and I like how I meet with the nutritionist and Dr. Kam at every appointment thus far. I find they give me information to keep on track with my protein and water intake, as well as advice. The after care program is very structured meeting with him at 2 weeks, 6 weeks, 3 months, 6 months, 1 year... I am glad he is on top of things. I rate himself and his team 10/10! I felt his surgical competence was very good. Although I felt his bedside manner a certain times could have been better. I know he does have to see many patients in a day and that could account for the time constraint when he would come in to see me. The nursing staff was exceptional, whenever i needed anything they were there to help! They were kind hearted and uplifting. :)
