"He was very kind and showed great concern for me and my friend that came to support me who also needs surgery. Not only did he answer just about all my questions before I could ask, he answered all my friends concerns and after my consultation she was convinced she needed his help, too. He let me know the seriousness of my decision. He has always responded to my emails promptly. His staff has been OK to deal with. They did move my date back almost 4 weeeks.I would suggest because he is dealing with such a larger volume of patients to make sure you have a good follow-up system for yourself. The staff is pleasant. He is a quiet man by nature I believe. But he doesn't have a problem speaking up to staff for his patients. Even my friend said he got the hospital staff in line for her when she had her WLS.
He has a growing support group, they are still working out kinks but for the most part are geninuely concerned. He stressed the change of lifestyle that would have to take place.
He is excellant. I'll have to comment later on last questions.

I'm 10 days post op,and I feel great! No nausea or vomiting. I have not only had to remind myself to eat I'm having a hard time remebering to drink. That's not good though. I went to first post op visit yesterday and had lost 20lbs. Dr. Case said I'm not drinking or eating enough and told me to get on a good multivitamin. I ordered my liquid vitamins I used to build my body when I was trying to get pregnant. They were great with immediate energy results especially the Get-Go-N product that is a B-vitamin energy drink that's not to be compared to anything in the regular market. The minerals and herbs found in the products I use are super. It won't be long before I'll be zooming around like I'm 25 again. I was just waiting on their OK. I'm trying my taste buds on some different protein drinks soon. But so far so good, I'm on the best side of life I've ever been in since I was twelve. I really feel like I have a chance! They have a printed program to use. But Dr. Burrowes prefers you find what works for you everyone is so different in toleration. Dr. Burrowes and his partner Dr. Case have great bedside manner, but Dr. Case is exceptionally sweet and comforting. His concern is their from the first word til he holds your hand when you leave. He's very touchable and caring, I love him! He is a good balance for Dr Burrowes who is to the point and reserved. But his surgical competence is second to none. I would not have wanted anyone other than him to do it for me. No doubt. They didn't miss a beat!

"When my regular doctor had problems with helping me to get a letter to approve the surgery this doctor only had to hear my sincerity and sent a letter ASAP!"
