Deciding to choose the path of any bariatric surgery is a big decision, and the process can be overwhelming, emotional and challenging. It is so important to do your research and educate yourself. Dr. Baranov came HIGHLY recommended by SEVERAL people and I started to realize there was a common theme to everything I had heard about him and the practice at Saratoga Hospital--professionalism, caring, experience. I think it's important to trust any provider you choose. It is a big decision and one you should feel as though people are working for and with you. After Dr. Baranov's informational seminar I felt so confident and empowered in the choices I wanted to make. I had every question answered, everything explained with honest and real information from someone who made everything make sense. Dr. Baranov may or may not have had the goal to improve, change and impact so many people's lives and heath but go to one support group meeting (yes, they are open to anyone interested, pre or post-op) and there will be a ballroom full of people who all have stories about how amazing this man is. His professionalism and his knowledge are just a few of many reasons why I am so glad I chose him for my surgery. There is a personal level of care you will receive from him that you just don't get from other providers. From the phone call post surgery to see how you are doing, to providing resources and following up personally that it had been taken care of. I know you will have a great experience with Saratoga Hospital Bariatric Surgery, best of luck on your journey!

Dr. Baranov and his team are amazing. They take the time that's necessary to prepare you for your journey. It started for me with an informational seminar then came the initial visit with Dr. Baranov, several visits with amazing nutritionists, psychologist and personal trainers. From beginning to end they scheduled each step for me, gave clear instructions and support when I was unsure of something. Dr. Baranov even called me on a Sunday after my surgery to make sure I was doing well and adjusting. The hospital staff was amazing too. You just can't go wrong with this great team of people helping you.

There are not enough wonderful words to describe how wonderful Dr. Baranov and his staff are. They are truly amazing at what they do! I continue to be impressed with how patient centric they are and their passion for changing people’s lives. Thank you all so much for taking such great care of me!

Are you on the fence about having surgery??? Hop off and get to your first seminar with Dr. Baranov! Myself, my husband and my sister-in-law knew from the seminar that he was the surgeon we needed.

Dr. Baranov is extremely thorough and caring. From the very first visit, to your surgery day and post-op care, they help you step by step. I even received a post op call from Dr. Baranov on a Saturday after my surgery! They give you the tools you need to be extremely successful!

Dr. Baranov and his staff made sure I was well informed about my procedure, before I went in for it. I was amazed at how I felt afterwards. Virtually no pain at all. I am very pleased with the way everything went. I would recommend him to everyone.

I did a huge amount of research on WLS in my area and found it to be non personal and very factory like. I was very concerned about comorbidities including age and a blood disorder. A physician friend suggested Dr. Baranov. I was relieved and impressed from the moment I walked in. His entire staff takes the time to get to know each patient. They are prompt with any inquiries. Above and beyond is the standard for Dr. Baranov. He even did a post-op check on a holiday. I cannot recommend him enough.

I met Dr. Dmitri Baranov four years ago and began thinking of having the surgery at that time. I went through the seminar and 5 of the 6 months requirements and decided to loose weight on my own.
It was a real struggle and my mind set was not yet there. Now three years later, after a lot of soul searching and varying thoughts, I decided to try again. Dr. Baranov and his staff were very welcoming and helpful through the next six months process and while I was making my decision. I decided to go ahead with the surgery as I didn’t want a catastrophic health event to be my catalyst for change. It was important to do it on my own terms. They all helped me see the benefits, ponder the risks and kept me well informed along the way. Dr. Baranov is very clear on his expectation of his patients and is very kind in his treatment of us. I had the gastric sleeve surgery 3 weeks ago and I am doing extrememly well. I came home with no pain from the surgery or incision sites (this was done via laparoscopic surgery), and I was just uncomfortable with gas pains, which were gone by day five. I have no regrets, my mind set is on my health now and I am enjoying my new journey. Dr. Baranov was highly recommended as the surgeon to use for this procedure by all doctors I have been seeing for up to 20 years. They knew me andd my health issues and they knew him. It was a great fit. I would highly recommend anyone thinking about this surgery to contact Dr. Baranov and begin the process. We get to take our life back, we can have a much different relationship with food and we can be healthy again. By the way, I am 63 years old and felt it is never to late. Thank you, Dr. Baranov for your phenomenal surgery skills and thank you to your staff for your continued assistance, and your constant support!
