I'am so Happy with my new size and good health. I'am so glad that I made the decision to have gastric bypass surgery. It is the best gift I could give myself.

Thank you Dr. Zare and Ben for your support.

I have had my first consult with Dr Zare. Yesterday was my first visit with psychologist(loved her). Tomorrow is my first visit with the nutritionist.
I feel very comfortable with him performing my life-changing surgery.
He gave me so much information and answered ALL of my questions(there were A LOT ;).
His assistant Ben, has been very helpful(and friendly) as well.
More to come...

My surgery has been scheduled for May 24, 2010. I can't believe it all happened so fast. I have wanted it for years, but have always felt it was so far out of reach.
Dr Zare has calmed my nerves as I WORRY about pretty much everything. I am worried about pain and he has made me feel very comfortable ;) about that. He makes me feel that he will be "there" for me the whole way.
His coordinator Ben, has made the whole process from start to finish, effortless. All I had to do was show up for my pre-op required appointments. I received approval from the insurance company 2 days after my final required psych. visit. 2 weeks until my surgery and all is good. I couldn't ask for a better experience pre-op.
Thanks Dr Zare and Ben Mendoza!

This surgery has been a positive change in my life. I have lost a great amount of weight, my health has improved and I feel less tired and more energetic. I am very greatfull and feel blessed to have had Dr. Zare perform my surgery.

My name is Librada,

Im willing to share my life changing results with you. Since my decision to have bariatric surgery, My Life has changed for the best, I no longer have high blood pressure, diabetes and high cholesterol. My life is wonderful and getting better as time goes on. Oh yes I can now wear nice clothes. How wonderful is that!

Thank you Dr. Zare and Ben :)

Dr. Zare is great! He was very warm and down to earth. Speaking with doctors can be intimidating for me but I was completely comfortable with him and his staff. They made this process so clear. He explained everything to me and was eager to answer all my questions. His assistant Ben is amazing! He helped me with the insurance struggle and even worked with my HR to find a surgery date that worked perfect for me. I really feel like I hit the jackpot with them.

Ah, first impressions! Dr. Zare' came across as sincerely wanting to help "me". He made me feel so comfortable. The office staff were very pleasant too. Can't find any cons about the good doc. Dr. Zare' personally called me for an initial phone contact, which impressed me beyond reason. I expected some office staff person to do that. Surprise, the good docs are still out there! I've only had initial contact...one office visit so far and that was a very good experience. This is my personal impression of them so far. 2/23/10

At my most recent visit, Dr. Zare' gave me all necessary information for my surgery, pre-op items/procedures and I'm ready. He was very thorough with his approach to me about the whole surgery. We went over everything we needed to and more. He is such a good man, ah, doctor! I'm feeling very confident in my choice for him to do my surgery. March 17th is my day! 3/8/10

My life style hasn't changed nor do i feel deprived. My blood pressure is normal and I feel great!! I will be comming off my blood pressure medication soon! I would recommend this office to anyone who is looking to have Gastric Bypass surgery.

I was referred to Dr. Zare's practice through word of mouth from a very close relative of mine had her surgery with Dr. Zare last year and recommended him highly. I have been so happy with my decision to choose his practice and change my life forever. I decided to have laparoscopic gastric bypass surgery to improve my health. AI have lost over 70 lbs in less than 9 months. I feel very healthy and have a lot of energy. The experience with Dr. Zare's practice has been incredible. Everything was handled very professionally and efficiently. The office works very smoothly and Benjamin, the bariatric coordinator is very compassionate and excellent at what he does. Dr. Zare instilled a lot of confidence in me and helped me make a decision about surgery. The practice does not charge an exorbitant fee and deals directly with your insurance company which his very rare in the bay area. There are many other practices in the area with either inferior results or with surgeons who come from out of town to San jose, operate in many different cities, and do not give you the same level of attention. I highly recommend the practice to anyone interested in receiving personalized attention and outstanding surgical care.
