both are great! dr. snyder, patrick and the rest of the staff, are the nicest people i have met. very helpful!!!!!!!

My first impression of Dr. Michael Snyder was very good. I went to a lecture, he was very professional as well as compationate. In dealing with his office, the staff was very welcoming and knowledgable. He was always there to answer all questions and does respond to urgent matters in a very timely manner. Dr. Snyder does have a very structured program, as long as you adhere to instructions, there is a great success rate. He also has many support groups that are very helpful along the way, and they are especially effective after a few years out.

Dr Snyder is very detailed and makes sure everyone is on the same page. He really wants to see you succeed and make a change that improves your overall health as well as the weight loss. The staff is all great, they remember you when you come in and really encourage your successes.I reccommend that you attend one of DR Snyder's seminars, it really gives you all the facts about the process.

Dr Snyder has a great aftercare program, he sees you at specific intervals after the surgery.

If you are thinking od this surgery, Dr Snyder is the best. He has a great program from beginning to end.

Dr. Snyder is a very kind but very busy man. I felt that he cared and was understanding but that he was very hurried. He understands of what his patients need and what they are going through.
Every time I have seen Dr. Snyder he has been quite busy with an office full of patience and he is attending to them (with the help of his assistant Patrick) as quickly as they can.
I think this is the only thing that bothered me is that they are so busy that they don't have a good deal of time to devote to any one patient.
Dr. Snyder has a great staff. They are friendly and helpful. Dolly can be difficult to get a hold of but she does her job and does it well. Laurie always seems to have a smile on her face and in her voice even when she is overwhelmed with work and patience in the office.
Dr. Snyder is very interested in good post-op care. He wants you to be sure you understand what you are getting into and then that you have the tools and information to take care of yourself. He provides all his patiences with his pager number incase you have any post-op problems. There is also his assistant, Patrick. Patrick is available by pager as well or through the answering service.
There are nutritional classes to attend to help you understand what to do and how to move along in your dietary progression.

Dr. Snyder is so enthusiastic and full of energy. When I first heard him speak at his informational seminar I was struck by his sensitivity and caring towards people with serious weight problems. Each time I have seen him I have come to like and appreciate him even more. He runs a very strong program that emphasizes pre and post education and care. While he clearly addressed the risks of surgery, he totally set me at ease about having bypass surgery. Both his surgical competence and his bedside manner are superb!

Dr. Snyder's assistant, Patrick Sawyer, is wonderful, too!

He was very kind and spoke to everyone like they were normal people.


no , not at all.

very kind and friendly.

not a thing

he is very compassionate, and dedicated.

very much so and insists on follow ups to check progress
yes

yes, in literature, in lecture, and in office visits.
1-10 I would give him a 15

both great

His first impression was that of an extremely professional man.
Over time, I realized what a great, nice man he is. He has TERRIFIC bedside manners!!
His office staff is very receptive and very helpful. The only downfall with them is that they tend to forget that many people are very new to this situation, and they don't know all there is to know about what to do and when to do it.
The doctor is a bit of a chatter box at times, therefore he tends to run late at his afternoon appointments.
You should know that he is a GREAT man who REALLY cares about his patients!!
He has a very structured aftercare program, that I look forward to being involved with.
His bedside manner is impecable; he really takes the time to explain things.
Overall, so far, I believe him to be a terrific surgeon.

Dr Snyder and his staff have all been excellent in their efforts to get me approved for surgery. I can't thank them enough for being flexible, helpful and kind throughout the process.

Dr. Morris was very pleasant to visit with. He was very concerned with my questions and compassionate to my weight. He explained the complete procedure to me in as much detail as I needed. He stayed after hours to finish our visit. He and his nurse have called to keep me updated on what is happening with the process and setting up appointments for me. He did take several weeks to get my pre-cert to the insurance company because he wants to make the letter correct the first time, but I wanted things to go faster. I am hoping to have surgery in July.
7-30-04 I had to change surgeons to Dr Michael Snyder in Denver. I was very pleased with him. He is very up front and straightforward. I loved all of his staff. I have gotten further with Dr Snyder in 30 minutes than I did with DR Morris in four months.

Great, very nice.
