John M. Price Bariatric Surgeon M.D.

I love Dr. Price and his entire staff are the greatest. Very professional, caring and supportive individuals. I'm so glad I chose them to assist me in this journey.rnrnI feel they are all very thorough in their instructions in my pre and upcoming post-surgical care. There is a structured aftercare in place both by them in the office and group support sessions each month that offer a different featured speaker and topic that is relevant to the bariatric patient. These sessions are open to those contemplating surgery, pre and of course, post-operative care.rnrnI will add more comments post operatively after my surgery on 1/26/09.

My first impression of Dr. Price was that he was personalable and approachable. This hasn't changed as I have grown to know him better. His office staff are caring and very helpful. One day over the Thanksgiving week one of the office staff spent the entire day helping me get a prescription that my insurance company would approve. She called before she left for the day to make sure that it had been done. Aftercare is strongly emphasized. Dr. Price doesn't mince words and says if you do the aftercare and follow his advice that you will likely not have complications. He says that the people who do not follow his directions are likely to have problems. The aftercare program is very structured. You know going in that postop appointments are on a particular day because you will see the nutritionist and excercise physiologist all at the same time.rnDr Price met with me and my husband twice to make sure that we understood all the risks of surgery,, possilbe complications and had all of our questions answered. I feel that he spent more time with us than any surgeion I have talked with before.rnI have had no nausea, I can swallow anything and I believe this is due to surgical technique. i very much recommend Dr. Price.

Dr. Price is so friendly and he truly cares about his patients. He has been very kind and helpful throughout the whole process. His staff is excellent, they will work with you and answer all of your questions. I had a RNY with Dr. Price and one other surgery and I can honestly say I have never known another surgeon like him, he personally cares about you and has excellent bedside manner. Dr. Price is very honest and he addressed all of the pros/cons and risks associated with the RNY I had. If I had to rate him from 0-10 I would give him an 11 he is Fabulous!!

DR. JOHN PRICE IS WELL EDUCATED, INFORMED AND WELL TRAINED IN BARIATRIC SURGERY. HE IS A GENTLE SOFTSPOKEN MAN. MY IMPRESSION IS THE SAME AS WHEN I FIRST MET HIM @ A SEMINAR ON FEB. 26, 2008. I CAN'T SAY ANYTHING BAD ABOUT HIM. HIS OFFICE STAFF IS VERY CARING AND MAKES YOU FEEL VERY SPECIAL. HE EMPHASIZES THE IMPORTANCE OF ATTENDING THE SUPPORT GROUPS. HE DOES ADDRESS THE RISKS OF SURGERY, BUT IF YOU FOLLOW HIS INSTRUCTIONS YOU WILL BE JUST FINE. I WOULD RATE HIM A 10. BOTH HIS SURGICAL COMPETENCE AND BEDSIDE MANNER ARE BOTH GREAT.

Dr. Price is friendly and easy to talk to. explained prcedure detail by detail. all risk were explained, and answered all my questions. his off staff was wonderful and friendly. giving encouragement constantly

I had surgery several months ago by Dr. Price and I am very pleased with the results so far. I feel that Dr. Price is a very caring surgeon with a GREAT bedside manner. He took the time to listen and answer all of my questions. I feel that he is a very competent surgeon and is highly intelligent. I felt 100% comfortable in having him perform my surgery. If you are looking for these qualities in a surgeon, he is the complete package. The dietitican, exercise physiologist, and psychologist are great with aftercare. Carla did a wonderful job in the office and is greatly missed, but Adrienne has been a good replacement. The only negative point would be the front office staff. Some of them could use a lesson in customer service. Also, phone calls don't seem to get returned in a timely manner if they get returned at all. Would these things stop me from being a patient of Dr. Price's? Absolutely not.

Dr. Price is a nice guy and a good surgeon, but he has one of the worst run medical offices I have ever dealt with. My experience has been horrible with office cancelled appointments and 2 hours waits when you do have an appointment. I am 2 1/2 months post-op and I have only had one appointment-- my two week follow-up. I'm lucky I have not had any complications, but the idea that the office supports you with a multi-disciplined approach and aftercare is a joke. He only sees post-op patients on Thursdays which means appointments are limited and once you do have an appointment be prepared to have the office running at least a hour behind. Perhaps I am the only one who has had these problems, I don't know. I'm happy with my weight loss just a little frustrated with trying to schedule my work and travel around a medical office that doesn't seem to care if I come back in or not.

He is the most compassionate person in surgery I have ever met.rnI admior the man's talent, very skilledrnHis office staff is the BEST! Love everyone-the whole team works with you and works together! Its impressive to see that now adays!rnLove everything about my doctor!rnHe emphasize aftercare so much-him and his team have the whole deal, exercise, diet, mental health, everything!rnCan not change a thing! Excellent!!!rnBoth are very important! Can not have one with out the other in my opinion-(both are needed to completely succeed!

Dr. Price has been a life saver for me. My Internist for the last 28 years recommended GBS. I met with Dr Price and his support staff. They are all wonderful. I am a nurse in the hospital where the Weight Loss Clinic is located. I feel that the staff of the Clinic do all they can to keep my privacy. Although I am eager to share what a great experience I have had. The support I have been given before, during surgery, and now after surgery are outstanding. I have no negative feedback to offer.

Dr. Price is one of the nicest Doctor's I have met. My first phone call to his office I actually spoke with him. His office staff is great. He is a great surgeon & has a great bedside manner also.
