My first impression was a very confident Dr. I think more information should be discussed at initial visits. He doesn't offer the information and having someone just ask if you have questions when your not informed is hard. The office staff is very helpful and pleasant. His surgical competence and bedside manner were great. I think future patients should be prepared to ask a lot of questions and research the surgery or go to a support meeting before they have it done. I am happy with the outcome of my surgery and am happy.
This surgeon Sadek is one of the most accessible people on the planet with any questions you may have. I would even call him for advice on watering my lawn. Ok maybe not that but he's a caring person. He was recommended to me by a friend and I personally know 5 other patients of his. Word of mouth is through the roof and no ad or sign can top this, he is that good. My only regrets are not doing mysurgery sooner. Dr sadek and staff are all professional and will fight with your insurance to get your surgery. If your even thinking of doing this and seeing him just do this. I've lost over 100 lbs now.

Dr.Sadek is a very good doctor! He is very honest. He answers all the questions you may have. I felt very comfortable with him as my surgeon, since my first visit. I recommend him to all the people and I have recommended people who are thinking of weight loss surgery! One of the best decisions I have ever made!
Dr. Sadek is a very caring surgeon that truly wants to help his patients improve their quality of life. After years of yo yo dieting, and the prospect of having to retire from teaching due to my declining health, I decided to have a lap band procedure. It didn't work well for me. Dr. Sadek wouldn't give up, and performed a full gastric bypass. I am now 75 pounds lighter! My diabetes is gone, I can walk, my sleep apnea is gone, and I have the energy to teach! Dr. Sadek guided me through the whole way, from calming my husband's fears to teaching me how to eat. He made sure I saw quality specialists, from my family doctor to the gastroenterologist, psychiatrist and cardiologist who cleared me for surgery. If there was anything
that I felt I needed, it would be a more detailed timeline/checklist of what to do before and after surgery. Dr. Sadek gave me my life back. Allow him to do the same for you!
