George Ferzli Bariatric Surgeon MD, FACS

I had my surgery on July 19th (gastric bypass) All the doctors and nurses at Lutheran Hospital were great. They helped me with everything that I needed and explained everything that needed to be exlained.

Dr. Ferzli made a great first imoression. He was very honest and caring. The best thing about him is his concern for his patients. I would highly recommend weight loss surgery as well as Dr. Ferzli. I felt confident. I would rate Dr. Ferzli 100%.

I have a friend who works at Lutheran Hospital and told me that Doctor Ferzli is "the best in the business" for what I want. The bariatric program at Lutheran emphasizes aftercare and the team is very helpful. I mainly worked with Karen, the coordinator, Lisa, my nutritionist, Christine in the office, and Doctor Saperstein.

Doctor Ferzli was very helpful because he explained the lap band in detail so that I was comfortable with my decision. There's a lot of aftercare with the program. All the staff (psychologist and nutritionists) were very helpful also.

Doctor Ferzli is my surgeon. He is very nice and upfront. He seems honest and I feel very comfortable with him.

I found Doctor Ferzli to be a very calm man and brilliant. He truly seems to have a passion for what he does. All the members of the team treat you like a family member. I think this program is exceptional.

I was happy to meet Doctor Ferzli. I'm confident that I'm in good hands. Lisa, the nutritionist, Dr. Saperstein and Karen, the coordinator were very helpful to me. I found the support groups to be interesting and they gave me advice to follow after surgery. I would recommend this program to everyone who is seeking weight loss surgery.

Doctor Ferzli seemed very compassionate. The whole office was professional, friendly and knowledgeable. It really seems that they emphasize aftercare and give you a bunch of information. I've been very satisfied so far.

Since my first meeting with the coordinator, everything has been great. I received a bunch of information and I made a decision to have the procedure that would work best for me. The support group meetings have been the most helpful and I plan on coming even after surgery as much as I can. Everyone in the office has been very helpful, especially with helping me figure out the paperwork. I love how every person I spoke to said that I'm not alone in this and that they are there to help me. That made me feel confident going forward with this surgery. Thank you to this program!

When I met Doctor Ferzli, I found him to be very professional. He had a great combination of being veery informative yet down to earth. I found that asking questions was comfortable. The team makes it eaasy to get everything done because they outline all that needs to be done; I just had to follow their lead. I highly recommend this program.
