Palo Alto Medical Foundation Hospital

I have met with my surgeon 2 times and my impression of her was that she seemed so nice and she knows what she is doing..I love her office staff they are so helpful they make you feel at ease. so far like I said i have met her 2 times will post more as time goes by.

My surgeon was the best! He did everything he said and I'm a week post op and feel great!rnThank you Dr Wetter and his team!

I really like Dr Foster. She has always been so friendly and seemed excited that I was going through with having the surgery. She did an excellent job with keeping the incisions small.rnI would highly recommend her as surgeon choice to anyone.rnHowever, I was hurt by her response at my first follow-up appt. She was a little condescending because I want to go back to the local doctor for my follow-up care because of transportation and financial issues (100+ miles one way to her office, plus outrageous cost of gasoline in California...not to mention having to ask someone to take me because my car won't make it over the hills). My local doctor is 15 miles away. rnDr Foster is an excellent surgeon if you live in the SF Bay Area.

Dr. Feng was very intelligent and professional. His staff was great. I had a completely positive experience with him. Both myself and a friend went to him for the same VG procedure the same month. We both had similar experiences and fantastic results. It was a life changer.rnrnMy impression was that Dr. Feng was highly competant but was uncomfortable with selling or promoting himself. I think that he vastly undersells his talents or the results of his work. A very positive trait in a great doctor, but not necessarily for somebody who needs to convince nervous doubting surgery candidates that they're doing the right thing and that he's the best doctor to help them. rnrnDr. Feng is very careful to clearly state all the risks and dangers to the procedure. He will not and probably cannot tell people how incredible or life changing the results can be when everything goes fine, as I'm sure it usually does. rnrnI rate Dr. Feng a 10+, hands down. rnrnI give him an A+ for competance, his bed side manner is formal. He's not a \"warm fuzzy\" guy perse.rnrnI'm a very busy, so although he certainly made strong after care recommendations I flew down from WA specifically to see him after a strong recommendation from a friend and wasn't in the area for close follow up. He's always available to see me when I'm in town, but otherwise I really needed very little follow up. I healed fast, was back at work in 4 days, felt fine and the weight came off. I had no problem sticking to my diet after the surgery.

I really like my surgeon. He is very warm and treated me with respect. He has a good sense of humor too. He sometimes can be rushed but I can speak up if I need more time. I would recommend him to others.

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.

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.
