John Paige Bariatric Surgeon M.D., F.A.C.S.

My first impression of Dr. Paige was "Geeze, he sure looks young." My oldest son could be his age. LOL
Over time I found him to be very knowledgealbe. He answered all my questions and never treated me as though as was being perculiar. I haven't found anything I disliked about him yet. I think his future patients should know that he is a very nice man and that he is very thorough and knowledgeable about this surgery. He addressed all risks of surgery at length. As for me I am having the surgery open and he explained all of these in degree. I would rate him a 10 overall at this time in my progress.

When I first met Doctor Paige I thought he looked so young. However he is a very smart man. He is very through. His office staff is very helpful. I liked everything about him. Future patients should know he looks young but don't let looks fool you he knows what he is doing. Dr. Paige really emphasizes afterare. Dr Paige's office is a complete program that follows you threw the entire process. Overall he is great.

I FOUND HIM TO BE KNOWLEDGEABLE, PRFESSIONAL, HE MADE ME FILL LIKE I WOULD HAVE THE BEST CARE HE COULD PROVIDE. AND I DID. THE STAFF IS GREAT, NEVER RUDE, ALWAYS KNOWS YOUR NAME AND IS READY TO HELP AND ANSWER QUESTIONS AND LISTEN. I FEEL THAT IF I WAS STARTING OUT AGAIN AND PICKING WAT HOSP AND STAFF, I WOULD AGAIN GO WITH ST CHARLES GENERAL IN NEW ORLEANS. I STARTED MY JOURNEY IN OCT 03, AND HAD SURGERY ON 4-26. YOU MAY SAY THAT THAT IS A LONG TINE, BUT THEY ARE THROUGH AND MAKE SURE YOU ARE READY FROM ALL ASPECTS, NOT JUST PHYSCIAL, BUT MENTAL, EMOTIONAL, ETC. THIS IS A BIG CHANGE IN YOUR LIFE AND DOING SURGERY IS JUST ONE STEP. I FIND THAT EACH TIME I CALL THEY ARE JUST AS NICE AND HELPFUL AS THE FIRST TIME I CALLED. DR. PAIGE IS WONDERFUL AND EXPLAINED THE SURGERY IN GREST DETAIL EVEN THOUGH I'M A NURSE AND UNDERSTOOD MOST OF IT HE EXPLAINED IT JUST LIKE I HAD NEVER HEARD IT BEFORE AND MADE SURE I UNDERSTOOD AND ANSWERED ANY QUESTIONS I HAD. HE LISTENED WHEN I DID ASK QUESTIONS AND ALWAYS SEEM TO HAVE MORE QUESTIONS WHICH I BELIVE MAKES HIM MORE OF AN EXCELLENT DOCTOR BECAUSE HE'S VERY THROUGH.AND I FEEL THAT'S IMPRTANT IN A SURGEON. IF YOU PICK DR. PAIGE AND HIS STAFF YOU WON'T GO WRONG, THER'RE THE BEST IN THE STAT OF LA. THAT'S JUST MY OPINION
