I have my first consult with him on Oct. 7 I hope everything goes well.

I felt very comfortable with Dr. Graber. He was very patient and straight forward with any questions I had. He tells you how it is, there is no beating around the bush with him.

I was impressed with Dr. Graber and his staff. The nurse, Donna, was fantastic. She answered all of our questions. Dr. Graber was very nice. He explained the procedure and what could happen. Also how important it was to follow his instructions. When we were done with the consult, he even asked if we wanted to have it. we both said Yes! When he first came in, he did say you're not both getting done on the same day. I liked that he was upfront and didn't pull any punches. I would highly recommend him.

My frist impression of Dr Graber was he looked younger then I though.

It haven't change he was right to the point and didn't say nonething that I didn't hear from my other dr.
They are very nice people and they answer your qustion .
Everything was ok untill I was told how much I weight.
That he don't pull any punchs.

ok

Yes that what I was told.

It is somewhat of a risk because of my size.But other then that it will be ok if I luse some weight
ok

I don't know I will have to tell you that after I have the surgery.?

my first impression of dr graber was that he was quite young. what I liked most was that he took his time and didnt rush me out of his office. He explained the operation in full details and made me feel comfortable. I knew within 10 minutes that I wanted him to preform my surgery.

I met Dr Graber at a support group meeting. I liked him alot, he seemed to be down to earth and open to answer all questions. Also I thought it was great if there was an answer he did not know then he would say us surgeons dont know or I'll check on that and get back to you. He didn't seem to sugar coat anything or to persuade anyone to have this surgery. I am going to meet him on April 22, 2003 and have him evaluate me for lap RNY which would be sometime in May or June. His nurse and secretary seemed to be most helpful on the phone as I haven't met them yet. I wish Dr Graber has had more experience than he does. He is a master laparascopic surgeon but has only done about 25 or 30 of these. I like the fact that the waiting period is only a month and that he's close to home. I have been told that he calls patients at home to check on them and does the aftercare including nutrition himself. I think he is a wise choice for me. I will update after our meeting in s couple weeks.

Dr. Graber is right to point, and tells you everything that is going on. It's so hard to put into words just how much I respect and trust him as a doctor. I know there isn't anyone better than him. His staff is also great. They called me everyday when I came home from surgery. Even Dr. Graber called, and how many doctors would do that? He tells you everything about the surgery before and after. There is nothing that you don't know before you make your decision to have it. He also did more to me besides the bypass, and had no problems, and no pain. There isn't anyone better than Dr. Graber.

I liked Dr.Graber rite from the very first time I saw him. My impression of him is getting greater and greater.His office staff is outstanding. Kind and patient. There was nothing that I did not like about Dr.Graber. That he is nice,very informitive. Treats you like a human. He has already told me I will be his patient for the rest of my life. I am so glad of that. Yes, there is a structured aftercare program. He has gave me info on it and will go over it again after surgery. He told me all the risk and complication that could happen. Answered all my question.Overall Dr.Graber is a wonderful person and very supportive. Both, Dr.graber has a great bedside manner and he explained the surgery process in detail.

2/19/03 Update

I went to my DR on 2/11/03, he told me everything is great all my blood work came back great and he will see me in 6 months. At that point i will be just shy of my One year WLS date. Plastic Surgery time. Yeah. Dr.Graber has been very supportive and helpful. I am so glad I had him as my DR.

HAVE NOT MET YET. BUT VERY HAPPY ABOUT THE TIMELY APPOINTMENT. I SEE HIM 3/4/03. HIS RESEPTIONIST IS AWESOME. I COULDN'T BELIEVE I GOT AN APPOINTMENT WITH JUST ONE CALL. HE IS NOT AS EXPERIENCED IN ACTUAL BARRIATRIC SURGERY AS A LOT I WAS LOOKING INTO, BUT, HE HAS PERFORMED THE SURGERY AT LEAST 4 TIMES THAT I KNOW OF AND HE HAS DONE LOTS OF LAP SURGERIES.

ANOTHER THING I REALY LIKE IS THAT HE IS IN HAMILTON. NO BIG CITY, AND ABOUT 20 MILES FROM ME. I CAN'T WAIT TO MEET HIM.

Dr. Graber is very nice man. His office staff are very nice and encouraging.I really didn't dislike anything about him. He addressed all of the risks and benefits of surgery. He explained the need to excersize postop.
