Kevin Looser Bariatric Surgeon M.D.,F.A.C.S.
After 3 months, I've had no complications whatsoever. Dr. Looser is a very competent surgeon.
He's "Joe Friday" brusque, but I like that. "Just the facts, m'am"
While he does explain what he's doing, you need to be the initiator with questions. He answers all questions forthrightly.
Somewhat conservative with fills, but that's probabily a good thing.
At this point, I'm very satisfied.
sincere and caring
Appeared stressed out from covering partners time off
The receptionist couldn't be bothered to give you the time of day
Demanding and high strung
Preformed surgery on me even though I had not quit smoking and he was aware of this
Significantly
Visits to doc and support groups
Clearly stated the risk of death, unclear on combo's of med after surgery
possible 5 out of 10
Both are great but he provided NO bedside manner. This has been addressed both to him and his staff and the hospital's Director of Surgery -- this was my personal experience and does not reflect all patients
I have only had 1 appt with Dr. Looser so far, From what I hear he is an excellent surgeon. I wish he smiled a little more but someone told me who cares if he smiles as long as he knows what he is doing. True I guess lol I am to friendly I think. His office staff Is something I need to figure out. I have been there 2 times so far and so far I have only seen one young girl smile 1 time. The other 2 are not very social :(
I am gonna say something on my next office visit to them and to the Doctor.
My surgery will be at Porstmouth Hospital and I do have to say I like that hospital very much. People are very nice and its really clean. The program there is excellent so far. I am just starting this whole process so I will let you know what happens.
I have consulted with Dr. Lambert of Dover Surgical Associates. My first impression was great! He was so nice and younger than I expected. He really understands obesity as a disease and made me feel good about my decision regardless of the stuff going on in the news. The office staff are really nice and helpful, and the program at WDH is a great one including exercising with a personal trainer at the gym four time pre-op and twice post op.
Dr. Lambert gave up on doing surgery and I am now going to Atlantic Surgical Associates, Dr. Looser. He is very nice and experienced and ready to go as soon as insurance says yes!!! The plan is fabulous, I have classes that are wonderful and Betty in the office is so nice and helpful! I give Dr. Looser and staff a nine and they would have a ten if they had called me the first time around!!!!! I give major kudos for them putting me right in line after Dr. Lambert gave up on his patients though!
Dr. Looser is very down to earth and straight forward when talking about WLS. He did a great job at explaining the surgery and answering any questions I had.
His office staff is wonderful and very supportive every step of the way.
I feel the bariatric team at PRH is very educated in WLS and are very supportive. The support groups they run are very helpful.
I would highly recommend Dr. Looser and the other surgeons at Atlantic Surgical Associates.
