I have had one consultation with him and he did my EDG. So far, I love him. He has been kind and has answered all of my questions. He is cute too! His office staff has been fantastic.
Post-op - I would recommend Dr. Currie to anyone in the Harrisburg area considering surgery. He has a great bedside manner and has always answered all of my questions and never made me feel he was in a hurry.
Haven't met him yet; but i've heard alot of good things about him. Only in the beginning stages. Hope to meet with him soon.Until than.UPDATE: appointment w/ Dr. Currie August 5th. August 5 2005: Today i met Dr.Currie and i must say i was very impressed . He's so nice and easy to talk to.Doesn't make you feel he's in a hurry[even though they were backed up]. I had several questions and he answered each one. I feel very comfortable with him.
Dr. Currie is very personable and knowledgeable. I felt comfortable with him immediately. Actually, the whole staff is nice. They have an active support group. The only complaint I have is that when I was first home from the hospital, I called the office a couple of times for things that they said in the book they gave me, that I should call if anything on the list happened. Then when I called, they acted as if it wasn't a big deal. Also, I wasn't fully informed on how the one incision would heal. The other 4 were closed and healing, the main one was still draining, and had to heal from the inside out. I wish someone had explained that clearly to me.
Dr. Currie was and is very friendly and compentent. He put me at ease the day of my surgery and made sure I knew all the risks,etc. He made sure all of the questions that my family and I had were answered. My first post op appt went very well, I had lost 15 pounds in 15 days! He went over the diet with me again and also made sure I understood the exercise and diet program. I would recommend Dr. Currie to anyone!
My first impression of Dr. Scot Currie was his looks. He is a very nice looking man. I got over it quickly and then got real. Dr. Currie explained the surgery and reviewed the list of possible complications.
I felt instantly comfortable in his presence. He was relaxed and unhurried. He let me take all the time I needed to ask questions. He was also professional and upfront. I was not able to find a question that he or his staff could not answer. Dr. Currie always made me feel as though I was his only patient and my level of comfort was of utmost importance to him. I would recommend Dr. Currie. Not only did he do my gastric bypass surgery in February 2004, but I chose to have him remove my gall bladder in April 2005. Still just as professional and competent.
Congratulations, Dr. Currie, on the birth of your daughter.
Dr. Currie is a true down to earth type of doctor. He pulls no punches and is very direct about your care. Everything is explained about your expectations after the surgery and his expectations of you as a patient to make this successful.
The office staff is second to none! Always, you are met with a smile and a pleasant attitude. They go out of their way to do what is right for you.
I was hesitant even when I was in pre-op about the surgery, but was assured that this was the right thing to do. I had the opportunity to cancel up until the fentanyl was flowing in the OR.
I honestly cannot say anything negative about the experience.
I met with Dr. Currie on Friday February 11, 2005. Dr Currie was very professional and gave me a real sense of being at ease with having my surgery. He took his time to explain to me what would happen during surgery and what to expect after surgery. Dr Currie answered all of my questions to my satisfactory and seemed genuine and reassuring he would take excellent care of me during and after the operation. So far the staff and doctors at the weightloss clinic have been the best, they have gone out of thier way to make sure things go smooth for me. I am now on my 6 month diet and when I am finally done with that which will be around beginning of July my surgery can be scheduled. Dr Currie says he will work on making sure everything is set up so there will be no trouble with getting insurance approval (I hope). Now it is time to play the waiting game. I had no negative experiences with Dr Currie. I did have to wait for about 1/2 hour before seeing him but his patience and confidence was worth the wait.
My surgery is Dr. Scott Currie of Weight Loss Clinic of Harrisburg, PA. My first impression was that he was nice and a straight shooter. He answered all my questions and looked me straight in the eye while talking to me.
The second time I saw him was before and after my scope test. He was kind and compassionate and once again straight to the point.
I liked him and put my faith in him.
The following are completely my personal impressions:
Dr Curie is a very kind and caring doctor and really knows his stuff. As I had pre-surgery tests done. I trusted Dr. Curie even more. His bed side manner is excellent.
The office staff is very caring and understanding from the moment you walk in the door.
I liked every thing about Dr. Curie.
He is a very competent and caring doctor. We need more of him in this world.
He is very supportive and stresses aftercare.
I already have the paperwork for the aftercare program-they want us to have that upfront so we know exactly what to expect.
I would rate him and excellent doctor.
And the fact that he has a great bedside mannner and surgical competence, just adds up to one great package.
Dr Currie is very professional & very friendly. He took his time in answering my questions and concerns. I am very pleased to have a surgeon this close to my home who I would trust with my life. His staff is professional and friendly. Their program from beginning to end covers all aspects of pre-op through post-op and beyond. He cares about your health after the surgery with scheduled checkups to make sure you are in good health. On a scale of 1-10, I would rate him as a 9.... the additional 1 will follow after surgery :-) I am totally at ease with my choice of surgeons. Thank you Dr. Currie! I'm now 6 days post-op. Here is that additonal "1" to round out the 1-10 plus an extra 5 :-). Surgery went great!
