Fantastic guy! Very positive, very energetic, helpful! The main thing - he does so many of these surgeries - he is super experienced, fast and precise. It really minimizes the tissue damage and post-op pain. After I read all the kind of horror stories about pain after the surgery - it was nothing even close... I had more trouble from the hospital bed - you know - they are designed with the idea you will want to go home after first 20 min laying in it...

This doctor and his staff are just wonderful! I can't rave enough about the support, thoughtfulness and respect that this staff gives it's patients. They are so supportive, especially after surgery, which is a great relief. The nutritionist is fantastic and it so wonderful to go to those meetings. I can't imagine having had a better surgeon for my sleeve.
Dr. Snyder is still the best.
I was invited to speak at a Bariatric Seminar in November. He was a great support. He told me that I would do well up on stage. He congratulated me for being brave enough to speak in front of an audience. I haven't been in front of an audience since grade school.
Dr. Snyder is the best.
He genuinely cares about his patients.
I am very pleased that he took me on as his client. He's the best.
OMG this team is great and Rose Medical Center great Nurses.
Dr Snyder He understood I grew to really respect him the staff was just wonderful especially Dolly who worked in the insurance dept. Dr Snyder was their all the way. I know this sounds strange even when I was not at the office and I thought about him doing the surgery I felt he cared. There are no rating for this Dr and his staff. The aftercare program excellent their book had everything you could think of. He explain all the risks he showed such compassion. Really this was not a negative experience. 3 People including Dr Synder called to check on me the same day I went home and the next day. What can I say rnGreat!rn
Dr Snyder did my RNY in April 2003. He makes you feel so good. I went in there very embarrased that I got heavy. He so understands the whole dynamic of what happens to a person that gets heavy for whatever reason. He made me feel very brave to fix my condition. Wow. When I had my surgery, I could call anytime for problems. I had never seen that before with any doctor. Very attentive. I trust him with my life. Now, I am very grateful for the follow-up care that he provides. I am 8 yrs out and having trouble keeping the dreaded weight off. He is getting me back on track. He is my doctor for life.
Dr. Snyder was very encouraging, professional and available. Immediately, he made sure that as a patient, I was totally aware of any risks as well as benefits of having my gastric bypass surgery. Dr. Snyder and his team were incredibly helpful and the education didn't stop after my surgery was over. He has a structured aftercare program for all types of patients in place. He strives to have a long term relationship with each patient to ensure our success. I know that I can ask for help in any area. Overall, I would rate Dr. Snyder of the highest quality possible. He has a proven record of surgical competence and also has an incredible bedside manner.
I would personally be priviledged to recommend Dr. Snyder to anyone who is considering weight loss surgery.
Dr. Snyder is an anomaly in the world of surgeons. From the seminar to the office time, I feel like he genuinely cares about the people he treats. Post-operatively, he updated my family and sat with my 7 year old daughter while she asked him questions about being a surgeon. He was so engaged, that he even asked her a few questions about herself. Dr. Snyder takes quality and environment of care seriously. I knew I would be in the best hands, and I was.
