I liked her and she seemed well informed.

My first impresion of Dr. Wynn was that she was knowledgable and friendly. My impression has not changed. Her staff is very helpful. I can't think of anything that I don't like about Dr. Wynn or her staff. Future patients need to follow her instructions very carefully. She does stress the need for thorough preparation for the new life style after surgery. She has structured instructions for activities and diet. She was honest and frank about the risks of surgery. I would rate Dr. Wynn, her associate, Dr. Irgou and the staff as excellent health care professionals. Since I am a health care professional myself, I expect both competence and good interpersonal skills from physician.

I met Dr. Wynn. She is soo nice and full of information. She listens to everything you have to say and answers everything you ask her.Once my appts are scheduled I'll go back and see her for the date. I'll check back in.

I was very pleased with Dr. Wynn. She was thorough in explaining the surgery. She also has great bed-side manner. Very polite, very pleasant, very informative. The office staff is also very pleasant handles all insurance matters which is a blessing. Aftercare is critical to the doctor. Without going through PMRI, you cannot get approved for the surgery with Dr. Wynn and Irgau. Dr. Wynn cannot stress enough how important it is to follow up with the aftercare program with PMRI. Dr. Wynn explains thoroughly the surgical procedure, along with the statistical information, any complications that could arise from having this major surgery and what percentage these risks all have. I would rate Dr. Wynn and her staff a 10. I believe surgical competence and bedside manner are both equally important to the patient.

5/20/03 - I met Dr. Wynn today. I liked her a lot. She was very knowledgable about the surgery. She answered all my questions. She requires thorough medical clearance prior to surgery.
Her staff was really nice. Pleasant and kind.
She was upfront about the risks of the surgery, as well as the possible benefits.
I think I've found myself a surgeon Ü


3/18/03 - My new surgeon is Dr. Wynn in Wilmington. I have not had the pleasure of meeting her yet - my consult is 5/20/03. I am really excited about meeting her, as I've heard many good things about her.
I decided to change from Dr. Abboud's office as I did not feel I was getting the careful attention I needed to get me through this surgery. I had a ton of questions his office did not have time to answer.


2/2/03 - After a 2nd visit with Dr. Abboud I decided to look for another surgeon. I didn't feel I was getting the attention I deserved for this delicate procedure. The visits are really rushed, each lasting only 10-15 minutes. I didn't feel I was being given the time to ask question and be comfortable with the doc.
So, effectively immediately I have changed surgeons. My new surgeon is Dr. Gail Wynn in Wilmington, DE. My initial consult with her is 5/20/03.

I met Dr. Gail Wynn for the first time on February 25, 2003 and was very impressed with her. She is very easy to talk to and made me feel at ease. she showed me a diagram of what the surgery would look like and said that I would be an ideal candidate.

I am equally impressed with her office staff and found them very friendly and helpful as well. I have done some research about the bariatric surgeons in De and found that Dr. Wynn's practice has the lowest complication rate.

I went to Dr. Wynn on March 4th 2003, I really enjoyed meeting with her and her staff..
My surgery if scheduled for June 25, 2003,
All questions she answered in laymans terms so I understood everything. Very friendly, and good sense of humor.
she addressed all areas of the before and after surgery care and explained how at risk I am for being overweight.
I would rate her and the staff a 9 on ascale of 1-10.

I am very happy with Dr. Wynn. She is very personable. The only problem I am having now is that my surgery has been postponed from March 19 to April 28, because Dr. Wynns' daughter was born on March 10. It was quite a let down, but I am coping.Waiting is the worst part.

Her staff is Great! They are all very friendly and quite helpful.

Aftercare is very important.She has a very structured aftercare program.

She was upfront with the risks and she explained things in detail.

I feel very comfortable with her.

Dr. Wynn is a very kind,petite lady who instills confidence. I felt comfortable right away. I understand her partner, Dr. Irgau is terrific too, but I have not met him yet. I believe they work together.

Their staff is wonderful and to their credit they do have a WLS person doing their insurance and comforting our nerves. Marie and the rest of the staff is great!! But because Marie has had the surgery I feel confident in what she tells me.
We have to attend support group meeting and also meet with a dietician pre and post op.

I will keep you posted after my surgery on 3/14. Thanks

My only negative comment was that my original surgery was 2/26 and was cancelled for 2 weeks! due to a bed shortage. This was extremely distressing.

Dr. Wynn made me feel very comfortable and relaxed. She answered all my questions. I knew that this surgery was for me, it was my husband who needed the convincing. My impression kept getting better. Her staff is the greatest. I didn't have to do anything, her staff worked with the insurance company and the hospital. I am so grateful that Dr. Wynn and team has come into my life.
