Although the preparation for weight loss surgery was difficult, I felt it was necessary for my safety and that I required much paper work completed for my insurance. I am confident in the skill and expertise Doctor Ferzli and his staff offer. I was so happy when the staff called me to inform me that I was approved for surgery.
The office staff and Doctor Ferzli have been very professional and organized. This doctor definitely knows what he's doing. He has practiced this surgery and others on thousands of patients, not only in the US but in other countries. I liked everyhting about the office from the very first visit and I would refer anyone there. It's an excellent surgical weight loss program in my opinion.
I have just signed consent and am expecting to be approved for surgery. I found Doctor Ferzli to be very serious minded about the procedure. I had confidence in him from the first time I met him. He is very professional and honest. The program coordinator and nutritionist gave me good information and reviewed it all with me. I am pleased that they continue to follow up after my surgery is conducted. This seems like a very good program overall and I am pleased with my decision.
I would rate this program as excellent as it is very detailed and the entire staff presents themselves professionally. Someone is always available to answer a question which makes me feel secure. I have recently signed consent and throughout the process of completing my paperwork, the whole staff was supportive.
I felt I have made a good choice in wanting to have weight loss surgery with Doctor ferzli. When i met him, he was very informative and professional. It was evident that he has a lot of knowledge. He spent more time with me than I thought and he explained everything about the procedure. All risks of the procedure were discussed and there is much emphasis on aftercare.
I first chose Doctor Ferzli based on a verbal recommendation. I felt very comfortable with him from the first meeting. After that first consultation, I began to learn more about him. He has been listed among NY magazines best doctors for many years in a row and he has performed surgery in several countries. The thing that I personally like best about him is that he seems concerned, sincere and respectful of his patients' time. I'm usually seen at my exact appointment time. The support groupss are very interesting and I hear about different patient's experiences. I understand that there are some risks to weight loss surgery but I am ready to cooperate and hope for the best.
This is a well run program. From my first session, I was amazed to know that all of my questions were answered before I even asked them. All of Doctor Ferzli's staff and he are compassionate and helpful while going through the process. Aftercare is a must and I always leave feeling more confident and aware of what I need to do in order to reach my goals. I knew it was important to pick a good surgeon but he is truly amazing and the best surgeon I've been to. I recommended him to several of my friends and three of them have made appointment to see him.
This program is well organized and everyone involoved, from the office staff, nutritionists, coordinator, and surgeon are very knowledgeable. Not only are they knowledgeable, but they are also nice and made me feel very comfortable. Educational materials included all information necessary for me to understand about my procedure.
