Gregory Walton Bariatric Surgeon M.D.

I have been through the free seminar and will meet my Dr tomorrow. I am expecting great things.

Dr. Walton is very professional, and will let you know what you need to do to be successful in the Weight Wise program.

Weight Wise is a program, not just an operation. You are required to attend an informational seminar prior to scheduling your first appointment with the doctor. Once you meet with Dr. Walton and decide to engage the program, you will meet with nutritionists, exercise physiologists, a psychologist, attend group meetings, and probably be required to lose some weight before surgery. From what I have read, this program is stricter than most. However, they also have one of the highest success rates.

I am three days away from weight loss surgery with Dr. Greg Walton, in Edmond, Oklahoma. I heard about WeightWise from a friend that was very pleased with her results. I had gone to a seminar given by another weight loss surgeon, and was very impressed with the seminar that Dr. Walton presented. He was very down to earth and straight talking, but provided much more information than the other doctor did.rnrnI live 4 hours away from WeightWise Bariatrics Clinic, and everyone envolved was very helpful in making each visit count. I was able to see everyone I needed to see in a short period of time, and then be on my way.rnrnEveryone at the doctor's office seems to be very dedicated to their patients. Dr. Walton has answered emails and his patient advocate, Brandy, has called us more than once late in the evening with information. The dietitian has been very helpful. They have an inhouse fitness expert that has helped me with my weight loss prior to surgery, and is set up to help me excercize to my maximum potential for greater weight loss. The inhouse phycologist was helpful when we spoke, and I look forward to talking with him more in the future.rnrnI am very excited about moving forward with my weight loss journey and feel good about everyone in Dr. Walton's office being there to help me along the way.rnrnMy only negative feelings are that the clinic is so far from my home, but you can't have everything. After speaking with other weight loss doctors and offices, it is worth the extra time and miles.

I was impressed with his no nonsense style right from the start. He told us how his program works, and that we were expected to fit the program not the other way around. I was so excited that I actually met HIM the first appointment I had. He didn't rush me and answered all of my questions. The office staff is so kind, and very supportive. I remember telling my mom, \"this place is like a well oiled machine.\" I would recommend Dr. Walton to anyone in the Oklahoma area. My patient advocate was so kind and helpful, I feel very comfortable with her! Aftercare is a huge part of his program. At weight wise they emphasize the wholistic approach. I have a dietician, phych, exercise physiologist, the works. Every aspect of my life is addressed.

My first appt with Dr. Walton was wonderful, the office staff and everyone was so understanding and caring. You are not judged or treated as cattle during your visits! I am on a program after surgery now and am being successful so far! I cannot wait for the results! Thank you Dr. Walton!

DR. WALTON IS A VERY DOWN TO EARTH, PERSONABLE,DOCTOR. AFTER 8 VISITS OR SO,I TRUST HIM AND HIS STAFF WITH MY SON'S LIFE.I BELIEVE THE RISKS AND AFTER CARE HAVE BEEN EMPHASIZED WELL. OVERALL SO FAR I'M VERY IMPRESSED WITH THE ENTIRE PROCESS. BEDSIDE MANNER BEFORE AND AFTER IS EQUALLY IMPORTANT TO FEELING YOU ARE IN GOOD HANDS IN THE SURGEONS OPERATING ROOM IN MY OPINION.

THE ONLY NEGATIVE THING I CAN SAY AT THIS TIME IS THE DOLLAR COST IS VERY HIGH. BUT THE COST OF STAYING AT THIS HIGH WEIGHT IS VERY EXPENSIVE TOO. MAYBE WHAT I REALLY MEAN IS THE COST OF MY HEALTH CARE INSURANCE IS TOO HIGH TO NOT BE HELPING WITH SUCH A HEALTH IMPROVING SURGERY.

Dr Walton was wonderful! You can tell that he really loves helping people and so do the rest of his staff. The program that weight wise offers helps me believe that I can change my life forever.

Dr. Walton is very friendly and personable. My first impression of him was very favorable. The office staff is also very friendly and personable. Dr. Walton and his staff stress much importance on aftercare and gave me dates for revisits upon hospital discharge. Their programs are very structured. I went to a seminar prior to surgery re: risks. Then again, prior to surgery, I was visited with and also read the risks involved. Dr. Walton is rated highly among the community and I would not hesitate to give out referrals on him. Both surgical competence and bedside manner were great! ~ Barbara Canter

I first met Doctor Walton at a seminar and was very impressed with his knowledge and his honesty about the different surgeries offered and their advantages and limitations.rnrnI was also surprised that with Dr. Walton it isn't enough to just show up for surgery. I had other friends who had weight loss surgery and weren't required to do any of the medical test Dr. Walton required. We all had the same insurance so it had nothing to do with insurance either. rnrnI have had to have all kinds of test prior to surgery and found out I did indeed have sleep apnea which I never considered I had prior to the sleep study test. I appreciate the fact that Dr. Walton will have as much medical history on me as possible and know exactly what we are dealing with prior to surgery. This makes me feel even better about Dr. Walton. Besides which it makes me an active participant not just a patient.rnrnNeedless to say I am extremely impressed with Doctor Walton. I love the clinic and all the staff.rnrn

Dr. Walton was very compassionate and non judgemental. He gave me all the options and explained it in detail. The office staff were more than friendly. When I go in they say hello. I guess they remember the patients. Alot of the staff have or are going to have the surgery. What a testimonial. This is a very structured program before, during and after surgery. You meet with the doctor, nutritionalist,and exercise physiologist troughout. If you have a question for the nutritionalist, you can just email her for a quick response or she will call you when she is free. I would highly recommend Dr. Walton to anyone. I give him an A++++. He was great before surgery and after.
