"First impression is he and his partner Dr Colletta are very professional. They were both at the Cori seminar at Boca Raton and explained the procedure extensively. They have only done about 30 gastric bypasses but are excellent surgeons. The both are there for the surgury. They have a great aftercare program. The program is new and probably has some glitches but I have found none yet. All the risks or surgery were addressed. As far as rating.... wait till after I have my surgury. I feel surgical competence is more important than bedside manner. I have my PCP for the bedside manner. Also, being a nurse I realize most surgeons don't have great bedside manners.
I am currently 4 days post-op, Dr Klein was great. I can't express in words how wonderful he and his staff have been. Both bedside manner and surgical competence were great. I would highly recommend him to anyone considering this surgury. "
