I had it at Holy Cross Hospital in Ft. Lauderdale with Dr. Marema (US

Bariatrics). He was fantastic. I have heard mixed things about the doctors at

Cleveland Clinic. If you want to know more, feel free to email me.

I had gastric bypass at Cleveland Clinic Weston in July 2002.I also had

plastics there in November.The physicians are excellent and caring,however their

aftercare program isn't great.The program,like many bariatric programs has

gotten extremely popular, so the care isn't as personal as it was when I had my

surgery.However,I saw 3 doctors before selecting Cleveland Clinic.One doctor's

informational session (no names be mentioned) was like attending a Billy Graham

Crusade,people literally cried when doctor walked in room-very very very

weird.That particular doctor has had numerous (over 10 )fatalities that we know

of.There have been zero fatalities with bariatric program at Cleveland

Clinic-makes ya wonder.My suggestion is to attend informational sessions with

several

physicians.You will know then who's the right fit.

For more info on Cleveland Clinic go to:

http://www.clevelandclinic.org/florida/depts/wib/links.html

read the patient testimonials.You can email me anytime and I will put you in

touch with many patients who have been to CC.We have even formed our own

aftercare support group.We meet monthly in different peoples homes and have

speakers and a network of compassionate individuals who visit pre ops in the

hospital

and provide telephone and in person support.

Remember,in your quest for the right doctor, you will hear good/bad about any

doctor.Be informed.Read and ask questions,visit doctors.This is your body and

your life.Good luck!!
