Sure do. He was my Dr. As far as a Dr. goes his experience and kindness was just great. I wasn't a fan of his office staff at all times, but, that's about it. I'd go to him again. :)

Anyone reading this who uses him - what was your hospital experience like? Like you say, met dr. nussbaum - heard great things about him. my surgery is scheduled for 7/1/08, but I'm not happy with his office staff. You'd think they'd have more patience for ppl who are making a huge, life altering decision and paying them the great compliment of literally putting their life in their hands. Dr. Nussbaum himself, though, was really nice, really patient, and has a reallly good rep.

I'm typing this from my cell phone so I can only type so much. The surgery is at the hospital itself and his office staff won't be there. The staff at the hospital was great. Tried to accomodate me in every way. As soon as the surgery was over he immediately went to the waiting room to my family and actually showed them a picture of my band. Told them his concerns which really were nothing major (about my enlarged bladder? Something LOL nothing to do with the surgery) said to keep an eye on it with normal dr visits. My insurance required overnight stay. I was fine. It was great. They gave me anything and everything I wanted and I was quite a pain at times solely due to gas pains :)

Dont worry. You'll be fine!!
