Has anyone used St.Alexius NewStart

Hello Iam just starting my research on which surgeon I want to use Iam considering Dr Wagner I have read other entries and seen Dr Wagners name, but not Dr. N. Richardson or Dr R. Follwell. I want someone who is experienced and has a great reputation. I would also love any feed back on how you feel about the staff's experience when you go get a fill done.

Thanks for any information. Lisa

If you don't get an answer in "Introductions", you might want to try "Doctors and Hospitals" and also you can search the site for those doctors by name.

Lisa,

I have heard good things about Dr. Wagner. I am also from St. Louis, and was just banded on Tuesday, May 5 (Single Incision). My surgeon is Dr. J. Stephen Scott, at SSM DePaul Weight Loss institute.

From the very first seminar, to all the insurance questions, paperwork, support, etc, I have had nothing but wonderful things to say about this institute. Dr. Scott and de la Torre have a fabulous staff and there are 2 support group meetings each month also.

Good luck as you do your research and with your journey. If you have any questions, let me know.

Thanks so much for the info I did check out the "Doctors and Hospital" category and found good things about Dr. Wagner but not so good about St. Alexius Hospital. I called DePaul and reserved a spot to attend a seminar June 10th so I am excited to hear what thay have to say although I have done so much research already I don't think anything they say will be new news.
