Guest guest Posted January 16, 1999 Report Share Posted January 16, 1999 this list is for info. and support. greenstein does not have a good rep among other doctors or in this study. ofcourse bioenterics wants him to stay, duuuuuuuhhhhhhhh. he's will push the band post-fda trial and make them lots of money! i believe the constitution of the united states of america allows persons to voice their personal opinions regardless of whether you agree or not. most want to know what has been heard about their doctors prior to surgery...for instance, it was known long ago greenstein was ineffective post-op and was having problems meeting fda trial follow-up requirements. it was also known his nurse has a very low opinion regarding " fat " people with " no willpower " . I know because she said this right in front of my very face.at a med convention prior to the trial starting. whether you are enraged or not, do not use this forum to chew out others for their personal opinions. i pity you for the medical inconvenience and for your financial obligations that will occur in the future, however, does this not confirm bagelstein's reputation from the very beginning??? Success=Hope for the Best, Be Prepared for the Rest. Much Luck, Debi Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest guest Posted January 17, 1999 Report Share Posted January 17, 1999 Dear Debbie, Be nice, sweetie ! You're right, this is a forum, and everybody can share their opinion. So please, whatever we all think of Dr Green(bagel)stein, let Kim express herself too and don't jump on her like that. After all, it's reassuring to know that at least some of his patients were happy with him. I hope that you guys in New York will find a way to have your follow-up done locally.

Guest guest Posted January 17, 1999 Report Share Posted January 17, 1999 Hi everybody, Dear Suzanne, Sorry that this nickname hurt your feelings. Let me just tell you how Dr Greenstein received it : he once made an adjustment (don't remember to whom on this list) with a ... bagel in his hand. Eh yes !!! At that time, the few people on the list laughed a lot about it, and this nickname went out automatically. I can assure you that there was absolutely no anti-semitic consideration taken. I hope that nobody else's feeling was hurt because of that, and if so, I hope that you won't mind, knowing what this came from.
