Michael J. Orris Bariatric Surgeon D.O.

I am so excited to get my surgery done. Dr. Orris and his staff have been wonderful to work with, which is more than I can say for Blue Cross/ Blue Shield!

I was very impressed with Dr. Orris and the WLIA staff with my first consultation. They were very friendly and made me feel at ease from the beginning. They went over the procedure and how the process worked and answered all my questions and concerns that I had. They really work as a team and really show they have a strong support system for the patients. I know I made the right decision and plan on moving forward with them on my journey.

Dr. Orris and his staff have been very helpful to me in my journey. Since my first visit to them I have lost 77lbs, I have just had my second fill and am looking forward to my future and meeting my weight loss goal. The staff knows me by name and are willing to answer any questions that I have. I also make extra visits just to use their scale and everyone there makes me feel welcome.

Dr.Orris has been a key to my success, I would definitely recommend the WLIAZ and his services.

Dr. Orris and his staff are great and very informative.
I am excited for my new w weight loss journey with him.

I started my journey for weight loss surgery in September '14. I was so nervous and unsure of what to expect. Dr. Orris was so helpful and continues to be supportive and easy to talk to. He helped ease my anxiety along with the rest of his staff. I enjoy going in to see them and know that my questions will be answered. I feel very secure in knowing that he will be performing my weight loss surgery. I would recommend that if you are looking to get weight loss surgery that you go with Dr. Orris.

I love this place and Dr. Orris is great! After a friend had surgery through another company that was just horrible to her, she started going to WLIA instead and the difference was like night and day. Dr. Orris and his staff has given her more success and a support system that wasn't available elsewhere. Because of her reviews, I will always pick WLIA! The group meetings are friendly and you feel welcome every time you attend. Michael Murphy is the best Nutritionist you could ask for. Everyone on the staff have been friendly and helpful.

I had dozens of questions about weight loss surgery I did hours of research. I had a coworker that went to The Weight Loss Institute of Arizona (WLIA) and had told me great things. I called and got an appointment right away to get in and discuss my options. Dr. Orris and his team walked me through the entire process. From my PreOp Diet, to the day of surgery, and to the present - 2 years later and 90 pounds down! I have nothing negative to say about WLIA and their team. Do yourself a favor and give them a call. They can help with any questions you have. Remember it is a process, its not overnight weight loss. We are here to get healthy and active. Make sure you go to a support group when you need extra motivation!

Dr Orris and his staff are great. You receive personal attention at each visit from the dietitian as well as the doctor. Very supportive place. I recommend WLIA and Dr Orris to anyone wanting to lose their weight forever.
DEBRA G,

Just had my pre-op appt and got my surgery date. My appt went smooth, I felt very well informed from the staff and Dr. Orris. I'm excited and nervous all at the same time, my nervous do settle when I think about whom I choose to do my lapband, WLIA. I'm confidant in Dr. Orris and the staff at WLIA. I am so ready to continue my journey to a healthier me.
