Review for Doc David Thoman, Ca

My surgery was performed by doctor David Thoman of advanced surgical associates in Santa Barbara California.

I really like Dr Thoman. He is very quiet and doesn't exactly hold your hand but he is very calm, very confident and an incredible surgeon. The process of getting my surgery done with him and his office was very easy and enjoyable. I really like all of his staff.

Cottage hospital is also wonderful and I had a great experience there. My pain needs were very high after my surgery and I was well taken care of. Everyone was understanding and reassuring.

This doctor has given me my health and energy, my vitality back. He never made me feel a moments doubt about this surgery and from everyone I spoke to, he is the best bariatric surgeon when it comes to surgical skill and knowledge. The other doctors at cottage all rave about his skill in the operating room. Having a great surgeon is a must when it comes to rny.

I also like his personality although he is quiet and has a dry sense of humor. I tend to appreciate people like this a lot and so it worked for me. If you must have a lot of pep talks and shoulder rubbing from your doctor best not go with him or you may feel a bit disappointed.

I have had no complications and feel great, thank you Dr Thoman!!!
