Michael Talbot Bariatric Surgeon M.D.

First impression was much the same as any doctor/police officer/teacher I meet these days ... man, when did they get so young??!!! rnrnMichael has that completely laconic style of Australasian humour, which works for me. He calls a spade a spade, which I like. He can be a bit brisk, like most surgeons, but I feel confident he'll do a good job and take care of me.rnrnWhile he also does lap banding and gastric bypasses, his strongest recommendation was for the VSG. I wasn't sure at first, but after more research (including the VSG forum) I'm now sure he has steered me in the right direction.rnrnAssociates:rnMichael's office manager Kate is a complete sweetie. And his resident, whose name escapes me, seems pretty good too ... if (gulp) even younger than his boss!

'He was very easy to talk to. He gave me options for types of WLS and didn't sway me to any one. He sent me home to read and think about my decision. rnrnHis office staff are wonderful. Katie
