Boston area peeps........anyone use the Brigham and Women's Center for Bariatric and Metabolic surgery? If not, where in the Boston/Providence area did you go and were you happy with them?

I went to Newton Wellesley Hospital and was extremely impressed!

Beth Israel Boston - Dr. Jones EXCELLENT!

Beth Israel Milton- Dr. Bresnik.....I'd give them a B-. Dr, Bresnik seems to be a fine surgeon, and I feel safe in her hands, but her bedside manner is not the best. The rest of the team seems to be just "by the books" with no real geniuine care for me as an individual. I hate to say this, but I think its important to get information like this out to anybody thinking of having the surgery and have them do their research.

Newton wellesley hospital. Love the team. Hospital stay was A++. Lots of support.

Dr. Partridge

Dr. McCluney, St. Elizabeths in Boston, is where he performs his surgeries, but he has offices in Fall River and Brockton where he sees patients.

Dr. Robinson Brigham and Women's. He is good, but his manner with patients sucks. I had a band to sleeve revision by him in 2015 and now i'm having more issues. Looking to change but not sure how that goes. Won't other docs not want to touch me??

I'm working with the MGH weight center. The surgeon is Dr. Matt Hutter. He seems fine; I just care that he's good technically. I'm just concerned that they don't seem to think I need to have endoscopy to determine the extent of the issues I have with GERD/gastritis since they have recommended sleeve due to my needing to take medications that won't be absorbed well if I had RNY. They also are not giving me a good sense of when everything will be scheduled, which is incredibly frustrating since my work schedule has to be booked three months in advance.
