Dr. Rohrer & his staff are the best. They are extremely professional, friendly and genuine.rnI wouldn't hesitate to recommend him to anyone! (actually I have been like a walking, talking billboard for him since the first time I met with him!)rnI feel that Dr. Rohrer & his staff, along with the staff at Benefis Bariatric Institute, have given me all the tools necessary for me to be successful.rnI'm looking forward to my new life!

He was fantastic! He answered all my questions, put me at ease and when he found a hiatal hernia during the surgery, he just fixed it! He just saved me another trip to the hospital! They gave me a lot of information which I am still digesting. rnI have always had a great impression about him, I work with him on a weekly basis, I take care of his patients. My impression of him got better. He was so compassionate and professional. The office staff are fantastic, they don't dilly-dally, and have a great manner. There wasn't anything I didn't like about him or his staff. He will always answer any question you have, so don't hold back. rnThey give us the lap band packets to go over that discusses the diet aftercare, but he really didn't say anything about the aftercare with the incisions that are still healing. The aftercare program is structured. I meet with him, then with the bariatric institute. They strongly urge you to go to a support group. rnHe did address all the risks of surgery, as well all know, range from minor to death. rnOn a scale of 1-10, with 10 being the best, I would rate him at a 10. Both surgical competence and bedside manner were outstanding. like I said, he was fantastic.

My first impression of Dr. Rohrer was that he is very diligent on telling you the facts and risks of the surgery. He seems very caring about my particular situation with my obesity and the problem it is causing with my Degenrative Disc Disease. His office staff is very nice and super helpful.

Very professional, to the point and caring.rnrn I asked him if he ever had this surgery. He said no. I felt like asking him a ton more questions about why he went into this field, but I figured he is a busy man so I kept to the point.rnHe has the best office staff and they are so great to work with. rnrnOffice is very clean and comfortable. There was another patient in there for him to see and she had nothing but good to say about Dr. Rohrer. rnrnSince it was a four hour trip home the office staff asked if maybe I would like to be seen early than my scheduled time. I said sure. rnrnI highly recommend him.rnrn

Dr. Rohrer seemed like a very knowledgeable man and answered all my questions. I feel he is more than qualified to perform my surgery. I happen to be a transcriptionist at the hospital he performs many WLS at and thus have a good idea of his success.

I really like Dr. Rohrer. If he wasn't my surgeon, he would certainly be a friend. My first impression of him was that he was caring and concerned. I first thought he had given his \"surgery\" speech so many times that it came off sounding repetitious and monotone. But when I began asking him my questions, he seemed to relax. He became more animated and seemed to enjoy visiting with my husband and me. He is very likeable. Dr. Rohrer has a wonderful staff! Lisa is simply a doll and you can tell she is smiling on the other end of the phone when she talks to you. If I had to make a sign to post under her name, it would say, \"willing and able!\" I haven't met too many of the remaining staff, but I got smiles returned everywhere I went in the office. I'll know more about Dr. Rohrer after surgery on March 12th, and I'll let everyone know how I was treated.

I had full trust in Dr. David Rohrer after first consultation, his office staff the best, I mostly had contact with Lisa, she answered all my questions very quickly via email since I live in Billings, Mt. Before care and aftercare instructions very thorough, can't say enough positives. Had RNY Nov. 20, 2006, released on the 22nd. Doing fine at home

My first contact with Dr. Rohrer's office was with Lisa. She was very helpful in guiding me through the process that I needed to follow to \"get the ball rolling\" for my surgery.rnrnMy first appointment with Dr. Rohrer was on October 25th, 2006. He did a great job explaining the surgery and the changes it would make in my life. He showed me a lap-band and how it works. He was very easy to talk to and comfortable to be around.rnrnThey did a great job submitting my surgery request to my insurance company and I was approved within days!rnrn

I met Dr. Rohrer in Feb. of 2006. He was a very well mannered doctor. I was a nervous wreck when I was on my way to my appointment and also when I was waiting to meet him.But once Dr Rohrer came in to the office room for my consultation he was very warm and understanding. He did judge me in anyway. He made me feel like a real person he cared about. He didn't complain to me that I was over weight. He made me feel good about myself and my decision to have weight loss surgery. Dr Rohrer's nurse Lisa, is the best nurse I have ever had my whole entire life. She is very understanding as well. She doesn't judge you, and she is a great supporter. Always encouraging. And very helpful with anything you need.rnI feel after care with Dr Rohrer is very exceptional. And you can call anytime you want if you have any questions. They are all there for you any time.rnDr Rohrer went over all the risk of the surgery. He didn't hide anything. He was very open. rnI would rate Dr Rohrer and his staff as above and beyond exceptional. I would recommend them to anyone. rn
