Stanley Hoehn Bariatric Surgeon M.D., F.A.C.S.

My first impression of Dr. Hoehn was that he was very efficent. He didn't dally around and I liked that. I want to get in and out of a doctors visit and he was very to the point, but was still very willing to answer any questions that I had.rnThe office is great. I really like the front desk lady. She is always friendly. rnOverall I would rate the office as superior. I also don't want to leave out the rave reviews for the PA in the office. He is Great! So are the nurses. I never mind having to go in for an appointment. rnI would highly recommend this office and I do, to anyone wanting surgery.

My first meeting with Dr. Hoehn came and went. I don't know what I thought was going to happen but it was over with before I knew it. I couldn't help but think how old is this guy? My friend told me that he looked young and boy did he. That is a shame that I was thinking wow how old is my doctor instead of how competent he is. Dr. Hoehn came in very confident and seems to be about his buisness. The nurses were very friendly and I felt a since of peace. When things line up in order you just know it. It really doesn't matter if he looked young or old. What is matter is the skills that he has and that I am trusting him with my surgery. It also helps that my children's GOD parents went to him and had nothing but positive things to say about him. Now that I have children it matters when I go to the doctor. I have to be sure that things are right. I have someone else to look after. So Dr. Hoehn is the man that is going to help me change my future and for that I will eternally grateful. rnIf you are considering using Dr. Hoehn please do so. I am very pleased with my doctor. He is very knowledgeable. Dr. Hoehn's beside manner is outstanding. When I finally woke up from my surgery, the nurse stated that she needed to call him and let him know that I was up. I was so out of it. I did not know that he or my mom had been in to check on me. It was late in the evening because my body loves pain medicine and I slept like a baby. I will not go into the details of my performance at the hospital. However, on my first visit he told me that they nurses told him all about it. If you are looking for a good physician who will take excellent care of you then you have found the right one. My mother was very pleased with him and he took the time to answer her questions as well. I guess you can't go wrong when you have mom's blessing as well.

Dr. Hoehn is wonderful! He is soft-spoken and is very intelligent. I felt that he has a wonderful bed-side manner. I loved the fact that he has a 0% mortality rate! The office staff is very competent and kind. Sometimes they are hard to get ahold of, but they do return your calls. I am very confident in Dr. Hoehn's program. I just know that I will be successful as that his staff is always ready to help, and answer questions. I am 3 weeks post-op and I have not had any vomiting or any of the other complications that might occur with this surgery. I would recommend Dr. Hoehn in a heartbeat!

Met Dr. Hoehn on 9/10 for my first pre-op consult. He was very nice but I was surprised at how little time I had with him. I guess I expected him to spend more time talking about the surgery. But I guess since we went to a seminar on it and most of us do a lot of research about it, he probably thinks we don't need to talk about it. And really, I didn't have any questions anyway...so still not sure why I expected more! I asked him if he still has a 0 fatality record (about 7 months ago he said he did at a seminar) and he said yes. I am still super-confident that this program is the best one to be in, that God has definitely put me in the right hands. They may not be the easiest to get a hold of, but they do make sure everything runs smoothly and are all SUPER nice!!!!!!!

First impression was good! The staff is great. The whole process with Dr. Hoehn is very structured. You see a nutrionist and psychologist to ensure you know what is in store for you after surgery. They do a great job preparing you for life with the band!rnrnI would rate Dr. Hoehn overall as top notch! He is surgically competent and has a very nice bedside manner! Of course surgical competence is more important. But he has the whole package! I would highly recommend him to anyone looking into bariatric surgery!

I first met Dr. Hoehn at the seminar I attended on March 5. His style of explaining of the surgery and the way he answered people's questions were the reason I chose him as my surgeon. I could tell he was a great listener and also shows a great sense of humor!rnHe really set my family at ease when he came out to speak to them after I was in recovery with his demeanor, and I'm sure my parents now feel much less worried about me, knowing that Dr. Hoehn will be seeing me basically for the rest of my life. rnI'm almost not sure if I should put this in here, but I know my brother's girlfriend would be disappointed if I didn't. She was jealous that I get to see such a cute doctor for the rest of my life! :DrnHe's good at what he does and I would recommend him to anyone considering surgery through the Bariatric Center of Kansas City.

Seemed young but was very responsive and caring. Office nurse was/is fantastic.. I would and have recommended him for anyone looking for a gastric bypass/lapband surgeon.rnrnI was told the truth about everything (I had done my research before walking in the office). I was required to sign a document stating that I was told and understood all the risks.. As well as what was required of me.rnrn5 out of 5 stars... I definately can't say that about most of the doctors I've seen over the past few years.rnrnBoth sergical competence and bedside manner are important. However I would pick surgical competence over bedside manner any day.

Dr. Hoehn is absolutely AWESOME!!! I would highly recommend him to anyone who is considering weight loss surgery! His office staff is very compassionate and knowledgable and I have had no problem getting any question answered in a timely manner throughout the pre-op process. I am very happy with the STRONG emphasis that is placed not only on post-op aftercare, but also on the pre-op process and making sure that we are as well-prepared as possible. I can't imagine having another surgeon, or any other program, by my side as I have prepared for surgery and as I now journey out after surgery.

A friendly, caring and competent surgeon. His staff is outstanding, going above and beyond in the quality of their care. Dr. Hoehne and staff treat me like family and are always available to offer support, answer questions. etcetera. He offers a very structured before and after care program, including a booklet detailing the post-op diet.rnrnI'd rate him 9/10

I met with Dr. Hoehn for the first time today and the only negative thing I could say was they were running about an hour and 20 minutes behind, but everyone was so friendly there, especially Becky at the check-in desk, so I didn't mind waiting. The actual appointment itself was over before I knew it'd begun, but I left so happy to have a surgery date, and felt they'd given me enough written instructions and helpful information and I'd done so much research on my own, that I don't feel like anything was missing. He seemed nice and was positive about the possible outcome and he really gained my trust when he refused to do RNY on me due to my history of pre-cancerous polyps in my stomach. He was more concerned about my long term health than he was about anything else and that made me feel confident that I'd chosen the right surgeon. I trust him to do a great job on my lapband!
