Valeriu Andrei Bariatric Surgeon M.D.

MY experience was fantastic!!!! DR. Andrei's Team, incredible!!! Wished I had the surgery sooner, years sooner I feel great and energetic and with hope that I will be leading a healthy and happy life Thank You Dr. Andrei and your Team!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

My initial impression of Dr. Andrei was that he was very through in his initial meeting with me. He wanted to make sure that both you and him are comfortable with the type of surgery you were having and he also made sure to explain, in detail, each surgery to better assist in your decision. He and his office staff make you feel very comfortable, almost like an extended family, and each staff member is pretty involved in the process. After my surgery, I received a phone call daily just to see how I was doing, which helped so much in my recovery. I would recommend Dr. Andrei to anyone who is thinking about doing any type of weight loss surgery.

I was always over weight after my grandparents passed away and i wanted to change that. I spoke to a friend that had the surgery who guided me to Dr. Andrei. I was told by a lot of people that i was too young and that i could lose the weight on my own. I knew that i wouldn't have been able to do it without help. I spoke to people i was close with and decided to come to the first doctors appointment and see what i could do. My mom came with me and was very supported. i decided to go through with it and coudlnt wait for my surgery date. Now 2 weeks after the surgery i feel better then ever. i Lost 9 lbs and havent looked back. Im excited to see what happens in my upcoming future. I want to be healthier and look better. Dr. Andrei was a great help and will forever be someone that has help me imporve my life. This surgery really did save my life.

Let me say first that the staff and Dr Andrei were wonderful in helping me get everything together before surgery.They were on top of everything.Dr Andrei was very caring before and after surgery.I would recommend Dr Andrei and his staff to anyone.

On the day I went to Dr. Andrei's office, I was very surprized with his staff. Everyone was so nice and welcoming. When I met with Dr. Andrei, I found him to be very understanding to all my questions and needs. He went over everything I would need to know and more. If I had to give Dr. Andrei and his staff a rating. I would say they are a 10 out of 10.

I went through the gastric lap band with another doctor in 2007 which did not go so well for me because I did not see the results that I wanted. I then found Dr. Andrei who I consulted with to do the bypass instead. He made sure that I did not make any decisions until I was fully informed and ready for the next step. He treated me with the lap band for about 3 months and then we both decided that bypass surgery would be the best for me. He removed the lap band in August of 2009. And October 20, 2009 we did the gastric bypass procedure. In the hospital and out the staff has been very accomodating and concerned. I have received a call from Dr. Andrei or his staff at least 2 times a day to see how I am doing or if there have been any complications. I am very thankful and greatful to have found Dr. Andrei. Dr. Andrei is the 2nd doctor that treats me and he is the best at what he does. I highly recommend him and his staff as anyone's choice. Everything they do is very structured and planned. They are very up to date and always double check appt dates and keep the patients on track as well. If I had to do it all over again I wouldnt change a thing!

I always thought about having surgery for my obesity, but never made an effort to take that step until one of my close friends got the Lap Band done. For the first six month I watch how she progress and how her weight went down. Because of her successful progress, I decided to take that step and go for it. She then referd me to Dr. Andrei, which I believe is the best surgeon to work with. I was a bit scared at first because of the risk I read online about the surgery, but he referred to me that I was in good hands. He is very patient and he works with his patients real well. I would recommend him to many people that are thinking about doing the Lap Band or the Gastric Bypass surgery. It has been one month now since I had the Lap Band surgery and I couldn't be more happier and the aftercare program he structured are perfect. His office staff are so helpful and work with you in any situation that has to do with your weight and the surgery. Overall Dr. Andrei and his team are great people and if I had a chance to do go through this process again, I would do it without any hesitation.

Dr Andrei was great. We started with him after a friend told us about him. My only fear was not waking from surgery. The office handled everything and put us at ease. Pain was very minimal and I am happy and feel normal 2 weeks later.

I met Dr. Andrei about 6 years ago when I was first considering my surgery. At that time I just was not ready. When I finally decided to have the surgery I wanted to find Dr. Andrei as I was very impressed with him. After speaking with him this time I was still very comftorable being his patient. My surgery went very well. It has now been 2 weeks since my surgery and I feel great. When Dr. Andrei explained the risks of the surgery he was very truthful but very positive it would go fine.rn Everyone on staff at his ofice is very kind and always very helpful. I have never had a problem with appointments or paperwork not being ready. I feel that I can call anytime for help and will receive it. This experience so far has been so much easier than I thought. I would highly recommend Dr. Andrei to anyone for surgery.

i love it!!
