Griffin Bariatrics -A New Beginning Hospital

I can't say enough about Dr. Floch and his staff. He is a very caring doctor who's concern is truly about the patient. Dr. Floch's team approach to the WLS journey has been the most wonderful experience !!!! From dealing with the insurance company to handling which pre-op tests need to be completed, his staff were always there if I needed them. I especially want to thank Tangella ( not sure if that's the correct spelling), Elaine, Deb and Danielle for without their constant support and their accessibility, I don't know if I could have kept my dream alive.rnI also feel that the post-op support of nutritionist, mental health counselor and support group meetings are what makes Dr. Floch's practice so special. :<)

my surgeon is the best he was caring .wonderful bed side manner things were explanned well no delays in getting ready for the lapband he also took out my gallbladder i can not say enough about him rnhe has given me my life back thanks rn dr floch deb cole

Dr. Craig Floch and his team was great. I still feel like they are still apart of my life. Dr. CraigrnFloch continues to check on my progress. I highly recommend him.

My first impression of D. Craig Floch was that he was very intelligent, professional and very confident. I researched different surgeries and different doctors for four years and as i soon as i met Dr. Craig Floch i knew he was going to be the doctor to perform my surgery. He only proved to become better as time went on. His staff is AMAZING!!! They are ALWAYS there for you and they do ANYTHING and EVERYTHING they can to make you comfortable. There was nothing that i disliked. Future patients should just go talk to him. THEY WILL LOVE HIM!!! They aftercare program is incredible. they have given me access to everything that i have needed. support groups and nutritionists and Mary Ziller. He was sensitive to my feelings but very professional and kind about the reality. Overall, i rate Dr.Floch and his whole staff EXCELLENT!!! THEY ARE ALL VERY COMPETENT, CARING, AND JUST ALL AROUND WONDERFUL PEOPLE!!! In my eyes, surgical competence and beside manner are equally important and they have definitely proven they are capable of both!!!

Dr. Craig Floch of Fairfield County Bariatrics in Norwalk, CT is one of the kindest, most concerned surgeons I have ever encountered. He not only cares about his patients, he treats them with respect and empathy. He is up to date in surgical techniques and explains the procedure in lay men terms to the patient. Dr. Floch's bedside manner is wonderful. He puts the patient at ease and takes time to discuss issues with you. He never hurries on his way and listens with understanding and patience. rnI would recommend him to anyone who needs any type of surgery, not just bariatric. He is the best!rnThe office staff makes you feel comfortable each time you visit and his fellow surgeons are just as competent and easy going as he is.rnFairfield County Bariatrics has a full program which provides support meetings and professional staff to assist with nutrition planning and a successful journey.

My first impression of Craig Floch was wonderful. He has a great bedside manner and he made me feel comfortable from the get go. My impression got better over time. I had a difficult time with getting approved through my insurance company and throughout that and up until the day of my surgery, he just got better....rnrnThe office staff was/is very helpful. I am 4 days post op and I don't need them YET...lol But, in the past, if I needed anything, I got back to me in a timely fashion.rnrnI would recommend Craig Floch to any and everyone. He talks to you like you matter and you're not just a number...He is a big supporter of support groups...pre and post-op. I haven't felt up to the post-op groups but I plan on being there in the next few weeks.

I thought he was very helpful and understanding to my needs.rnIt never did.rnThe office staff was very nice and helpful too.rnNothing.rnHe is GREAT!!!!rnEnough.rnYes.rnDescribed to me the risks.rnGREAT!!!rnboth.

'Dr. Floch has been great. He answered every question I had

My first impression of Dr. Floch was very positive. I met Dr. Neil Floch at a seminar at Hall-Brooke. Dr. Ehrlich was also there. After the Dr.'s finished their presentation they walked around the room to meet everybody. Dr. Floch came right over and introduced himself to me. He was very friendly and made me feel comfortable. He asked me if I had any questions about WLS..well for the next 15 minutes he sat there with me and my Mother and answered each question in detail. Shortly after meeting both Dr.'s I made my first appointment with Dr. Floch. I thank God that he was able to see me.
I haven't had the surgery yet but I am getting closer each day. I know in my heart that Dr.Floch will do everything he can to help me with the wight loss journey ( as well as the office staff...thank you Denise for your patience.)
Once I have my WLS I will be SURE to update this section. Thank you!

I was very nervous about being there, but affter a few minutes talking with him I was fine.

The office staff was very helpful, I called them several times with questions and always got answers.


Surgical competenceand bedside manner were both great.
