My first impression of Dr. Wynn was WOW..she is intelligent, thorough and I would recommend her to anyone for beside manners. After surgery I will write more..

There is are quite a few words that I would use to describe Dr. Wynn, kind, caring, compassionate, understanding, and a pleasure to have as a doctor. The more I get to know her the more I admire and like her. She explained everything to a T, made sure I understood everything and took her time with me. Everyone at the office that I have dealt with so far have been exactly like Dr. Wynn, very professional, kind, understanding (especially when you call needing to vent).

I would reccommend Dr. Wynn and that whole group to anyone looking into this surgery.

I was very impressed with Dr. Wynn. She is very nice and explained all types of the surgeries available.

The staff has been great!

They have an inhouse shop for protein drinks and goodies. You can ask for free sample packets when you go for your visit. This is very helpful. The cost is better than most health food stores and GNC.

Aftercare is very important to them and to yourself.

If you do as they tell you and do lots of walking you'll do fine.

I was very confident in my care.

Dr. Wynn and the CHRIAS office all seem so nice. They are very busy and can get backed up when an emergency comes up (like any doctor office) and other times, I've been in and out with no trouble. I've had the chance to meet most of the doctors in the office and have found each one kind. I would have no problem seeing any of the doctors there. </p>

Consultation Completed. I really liked Dr Wynn. She was very straight forward and professional and did not hesitate answering every question both me and my wife presented to her. As far as the office staff they are TOP notch. Very polite and helpful and did not hesitate taking the extra time to explain additional information on some confusing points.

My first impression of Dr. Irgau was that he was very professional and explained the procedure thoroughly. Now 8 months out from RNY Laproscopic surgery and I can say that the whole CHRIAS program is really designed to help you to be successful post op and Dr. Irgau in my book is the greatest! He truly shows a personal interest in his patients and he has a kind a warm spirit. This is why he is so good at helping obese people to regain their lives. I owe my life to Dr. Irgau and the CHRIAS team for their expertise and their very human approach to this problem. Many doctor's (even those who perform this surgery) don't show the compassion the CHRIAS doctors have shown me during hospital and office visits. In 1997 I consulted with a doctor at Jefferson Hospital in Philadelphia and he had to take me downstairs to be weighed on a meat scale in the hospital kitchen because his scale only went up to 350 which was very degrading for me! I never felt any shame when I visited with Dr. Irgau. I saw a surgeon who wanted to help me to successfully lose the weight and keep it off. Thanks again Dr. Irgau because you have added years to my life!

From the moment i met Dr Peter's i found him to be a very caring and considerate doctor. As my time progressed to my surgery date, he was one of the few people i found to really be concerned about me losing the weight in the correct fashion and put my mind at ease about the surgery and what to expect. After my surgery and some complications arised. Dr Peter's kept a watchful eye over me personally until i was out of the woods. To this day, he has always been their whenever i have had problems with keeping food down or some other medical reasons. He is more then a Doctor to me, but someone i like to refer as a friend. He is my own personal Hero! I have met many Doctor's in the medical profession, but he has proven to be the most respectful and caring one to date so far. If anyone has ever had any doubts about a surgeon, meet Dr Peter's and i am sure he'll put your mind at ease. How many other Surgeons/Doctors do you know that will call you back personally to ask what the problem might be, most dispense medications without even looking at you, but not Dr Peter's. He is the Man!

Dr. Irgau was awesome. He was so informative and just nice. He has a sense of humor which I love.

My first impression of Dr. Wynn was that she was pretty darn straight forward and matter of fact. She rate high in my book. The more you are around her the more you realize that she is not just a doctor that gives you your 90 second visit. She really cares about her patients. This caring and professionlism is constant with her entire staff.

The nurses and staff need to be more more educated on the surgery itself, they really didn't know, they were trying to give meds that I couldn't have
