Going to this appointment I was very uneasy,within a few minutes of being with Dr.Gerdes I felt so comfortable and found it very easy to communicate with him,he is kind and compassionate and he did not rush through the session.I would go back to him in a heartbeat and highly recomend him to everyone.

This is the second time I have seen Dr Gerdes. He is such a kind and caring Dr. I would recommend him for your WLS eval in a heartbeat

I didn't care for Dr. Gerdes at all! When I had my eval, he told me I wasn't a good canidate because I had food issues and because he didn't think I was mentally prepared for WLS. Guess what??? I ran into him 51/2 months after surgery, weighing 100 pounds less, and told him thanks for his support, NOT!!!! Yes, I really did tell him that. I proved the MAN wrong!

John made me very comfortable. He was very encouraging. The time was also spent thinking about how would handle my futre goals once surgery was completed and how I would deal with any obstacles. This of course is something I have been working on with the program I have been using through the Weight loss program at Danville. I felt very good about my visit with this psychologist. He was friendly and made me feel very comfortable. The "testing" is nothing a patient should be concerned about.
