Has anyone had Dr. Umbach in the last 2 years... Any words of wisdom regarding his care, staff and complications?

Just had my sleeve done by Dr Sergey Lyass with Oband last Friday. He is great and staff is also great!

I went to Dr. Umbach in November, 2013.

I had an amazing experience - the staff is awesome and so is the doctor. I am very happy with my choice.

You can PM me if you have any particular questions.

My boyfriend and I just both had surgery with him September 5th, 2014. We really had a great experience. Extremely fast healing. It is out paitent surgery and when I read about others experiences... our post surgery recovery was a breeze! They are a well oiled machine when it comes to managing pain and nausea post op, epecially since it is out patient.

Getting ready to go next week (my surgery is scheduled for Oct 17th!). It has been wonderful dealing with the office thus far and I'm so happy to hear that others had a good experience there!

I'm so glad this is a post I'm scheduled with him in less than two weeks.

Good luck Jamie, everything will go great!

I guess I should update lol. I had gastric sleeve with Dr. Umbach 11/26/14 - no complications. I was outpatient. Feel free to message me with any questions that I might be able to help with! Good luck!

This is my first time on this forum so interesting to see that Umbach is discussed here. I go to one of his pre-surgery seminars this week to find out more info but have been doing a lot of research on my own.

I'm continually confounded how people can gain weight with a new 9oz stomach if they aren't very careful about what they eat. It seems that if I ate what is described in post op, I'd lose weight like crazy even w/o surgery...
