El Camino Hospital Hospital

The man is a GOD!!! Sweet as can be..Very compassionate and caring. He did a wonderful job with my RNY. I didnt have any complications at all. He was there for me every step of the way. Dr. Wetter's office staff is one of the best. I cant say enough about Yvette the surgery coordinator.

When I meet Dr. Pamela Foster I knew my life it was starting to change she did told me the I was a candidate for the bariatric surgery so I was very happy, she is very profesional and staff too.rnrnrnMy surgery is caming up on 03/12/2007rnrnI am very happy

I think Dr Foster is the best! I had my RNY sugery July 26, 2006. I have had zero complications and could not feel better. Her surgical competence and bedside manner are off the charts!! If you are searching for a wonderful surgeon with great office staff and a structured aftercare program search no more!! rn

My mom and I shared the same surgeon for our surgeries so I knew that Dr. Foster would be fabulous, I wasn't disappointed. She is firm, and she expects you to do what you are supposed to. I'm really glad that I got to pick her to save my life! She did a great job, my scars are minimal and I haven't had any complications.rnrnHer staff is fabulous as well. Everyone there was very friendly and encouraging.

Both of my kids were born there and those experiences were wonderful. Having the surgery there was a little different and I did have some complaints about my care.

I had my surgery with Dr Wetter in May 2003. He was very nice and supportive. He did not make me feel bad about being obese. I got a list of the requirements needed before I came in to see him, so I had everything lined up so I wouldn't have to wait too long to have my surgery. His staff was very nice. His office furniture was very large and the bathroom was set up for very large people. He answered all my questions and let me make my own decisions without any pressure. I saw him regularly after my surgery and continue to see him once a year. Overall, I rate him excellent. He is an excellent surgeon and has a great bedside manner. I have not had any complications since my surgery and have kept the weight off. This surgery is not a solution to obsesity, it is only a tool to help you lose the weight. If you are not willingly to watch your calorie intake and exercise don't bother having it done.

Dr. Foster is a no nonsense doctor sho knows what she is doing.

First impression was that she knew her stuff. Over our next few meetings it was great to know that she could relate to my concern about having the surgery when I had people telling me that if I tried just a little bit harder I could lose the weight. Dr. Foster let me know that is OK to have surgery and that I wasn't a failure but that I was taking advantage of all the tools available.rnrnThe office staff is nice and helpful. Yvette really knows her stuff and is always there when you need her.rnrnNot sure at this time what I like least about Dr. Foster.rnrnFuture patients should know if you are on the fence Dr. Foster will not push you over she will lay out all the pros and cons and tell you the decision is yours to make. If you ask for her opinion she will give it.rnrnDr. Foster recommends that you do the program. That you start walking before leave the hospital and continue with the program outline in the book you received at your hospital pre-op. That you start doing resistance training as soon as you feel comfortable doing it. And most importantly that you don't do too much at once. rnrnDr. Foster is a join to work with.rn

My first impression of Dr. Foster was that she was no nonsense and very competent. This impression remained true throughout my experinces so far. The office staff was very nice and helpful. She had an excellent recommendation from a previous patient in my area and she was assiciated with a Center of Excellence hospital as well. I think their office could improve their aftercare program. The associated hospital has a good program, but for long distance patients such as myself, I would like more structured support from them. Overall Dr. Foster and her staff were an excellent choice for me. She recieved praise from the bariatric coordinator of Mills Penninusula Hospital as well, which meant a lot to me. (Who would know better??).

I liked him very much. He was easy to be in the company of, was knowledgeable and answered my questions thoroughly. My surgery went off without a hitch.
