Patrick Reardon Bariatric Surgeon M.D.

A great surgeon and eager to do what’s right for his patient. Very knowledgeable and caring

My first impression of Dr. Reardon is that he is very confident, knows what needs to be done, and gets it done. My impression of him has not changed. My surgery was almost two weeks ago, thankfully all went well. He spoke with my family after the surgery, explained what he had done and why it was done. He then checked on me once or twice throughout my hospital stay, but his surgery fellows/residents also checked on me.

I am not real sure about his aftercare program, I am signed up with the Methodist Hospital to attend classes there post-op so that is not an issue.

I would say if I had to pick one....surgical competence would be prefered over bedside manner........however, he had both, which is great.

awesome man.

My first impression of Dr. Reardon was that he really seemed to care about me as an individual, not just another patient. He sat down with my husband and I and explained everything in very easy to understand terms. He also took time to sit and talk to us and answer all of our questions. He has put together a pamphlet that explains everything about the surgery in detail. It also has pictures and diagrams that go through every step of the actual surgical procedure. It also details the diet and has sample menus to give you an idea of how life will be after surgery with food during the different phases of the diet. I was very impressed by this. He also has an excellent reputation at Methodist and specializes in minimally invasive surgery. There is an awesome weight management center he has that includes a wonderful aftercare program. This center includes nutrition, psychological, and has support groups.

I was referred to Dr. Patrick Reardon by a friend who is a nurse at Methodist hospital who has had a revision done by him. Dr. Reardon was running behind on the day of my consult but it ended up he spent a lot of time with me. He addressed all the pro's and con's and drew diagrams of everything! I have done my research and he has an excellent surgical record at Methodist.

Dr. Reardon is a very caring individual. His philosphy is one of doing the best he can for his patients. My impression of him has only gotten better over time. His staff is also very caring...but also very busy.
This is a team approach. He will do his best by you, however you must be willing to follow orders and do your best by him.


There is nothing I do not like about him.

After care is very important. After all, this surgery is only a TOOL.

Aftercare program is in progress of being built.
He goes over risks of surgery in great detail.

I rate him excellent.

All aspects of his care (competence, bedside manner) is EXCELLENT.

I know this may seem strange, but having talked with this surgeon's other patients, we all feel the same way---he is an excellent surgeon.

The only negative ( if you want to call it that) is that he is a very busy man. But he will stop and answer any questions you may have.

very caring and professional.very helpful.goes the extra mile

Great Doctor!! And my impression has never changed of Dr. Patrick Reardon. Warning. Take charge of your plan and your health. Dr. Reardon is great with both family and individuals that "walks the walk and talks the talk". Baylor man. Top of the Class. Aftercare is "if you want to eat it and you think you can, do it. Just remember to chew like hell before you swallow and you should be alright". Aftercare is up to you. You can not need a caretaker if you go this man's route. If you want it, get it. Not someone else.

Overall I give Dr. Reardon 100 out of 100.

God Bless!!

First impression, a bit annal, and over confident. But not obnoxious...
I never really spent enough time with him to get an idea of what kind of person he really is. His office staff is great, very friendly and helpful. I have seen Dr Reardon one time since surgery at my one month check for a brief moment. No after care information. He definately addressed the risks of the surgery with me, and addressed them again with my husband. He answered all my questions prior to surgery, while in the office. It was impossible to get any information from him any other way than in person.

Though I think Dr Reardon is a very competent surgeon, I would recommend Dr Naaman. He seems to have a better grasp of the obesity surgeries and after care. Dr. Naaman even has a website with message posts from patients and potiental patients that answer every question you could think of and many more that you would never think of!

I think being a competent surgeon comes before anything else, but it really helps to have a good bedside manner, or at least surround yourself with other doctors that do.

These are just my personal impressions of my own personal experience and that I am making no statements about what other people may experience.
