Before my surgery, I had a lot of problems leading to the surgery itself. Such as other physicians turning in test results in a timely manor. Jamie was very influential in finding out what the problems were. She was also very sympathetic and helpful to my problems and concerns. I really appreciated her help and understanding during this process. I finally was able to have the surgery in Sept. of 2013 and all is going very well.

I loved, loved, loved working with Jamie!! She was always open to my questions and she always had a quick response for me. She helped me organize myself when I had to complete many things prior to my surgery. She is friendly, courteous, polite, and amazing to work with. Love her!!

Jamie is over the top!!! I love that Jamie was so open to emails and questions, Jamie had answers for me exstremly quick. Jamie is always a very happy person. The fact that Jamie is a Insurance Specialist and so organized, made her one of the best that I met through my appts with the Bariatric Team. *** Jamie thank you so very much for really being there as someone that knows what you are doing, happy to be helping and as a new friend… thank you!***

I met Dr Leena Khaitan on May 2nd 2012 ...She is very pleasent goes over with you the surgical procedure ..the requirments...and making you understand this isn't the easy way out..it's going to be work for the rest of my life..I will control my own destiny but this as a tool will give me the extra boost in the direction of my goals.I recommend her to any new patients and will be willing to accept any friend requests if I can help in any way.

My rebirth date is: September 4th 2012

What can i say? Pure joy! I had met this doctor, and she was straight up about this surgery. She told me what was expected, and explained that this surgery was a TOOL for better health. I followed the diet plan to the "T", even the strict diet that is 2 weeks before, I followed it 4 weeks before. My surgery was on Feb 14th 2012. When i started this weight loss 8 months prior i was 270 lbs. Currently i am at 204 lbs. I feel better and am more mobile then ever. I was born with a deformed leg, and was always heavy all of my life. I decided at the age of 51 to find my JOY and just change my way of life. And Leena Khaitan and her wonderful people helped me to try and achieve that. I am still seeing her and my dietician monthly and am feeling much better for it. Once they wheeled me into surgery i couldnt thank each and every person who was helping her. I said "this is just not an everyday surgery for you's, you are helping me change my life and I want to thank you all". PURE JOY!

Ny first impression of Dr. Khaitan is that she cares about you as a patient and as well as an individual. Her office staff is awesome! The nurse that works with Dr. Khaitan is a patient of hers also and she only has great things to say about Dr. Khaitan. I really do not have anything negative to say about the Dr. she tells you what to expect and explains that this is a tool to help you lose the weight and that you determine how successful you will be with your weight loss. Her bedside manner and surgical competency are both great. I would recommend her to anyone in Ohio that are seeking a competent surgeon for weight loss.

Dr. Leena Khaitan and her team were very professional and she did a wonderful job. They are were very helpful through the whole entire process! I would recommend her as a bariatric surgeon to anyone who was looking to have one of these surgeries.
