How likely are you to recommend Dr. Patterson?
I am having VSG surgery (Gastric Sleeve Surgery) in April 2024 with Dr. Emma Patterson and she has been absolutely AMAZING throughout the process. I was surprised how quickly the process has gone from the first Consultation to the expected surgery date itself! I had heard of people having to wait 6 months to a year or more before getting surgery from start to finish but I only had to wait 3 month (90 days!) I understand now that has a lot to do with your insurance and their requirements and my health insurance only requires a 3 month (90 day) wait period so I suppose I’m lucky in that regard, there were some required things to do before hand like a Psychological Evaluation, EKG, Nutritionist Evaluation, Sleep Study and four appointments with the Surgeon before the surgery itself which I was able to do all the required things within about one month (except for the final appointment with Dr. Patterson at the end of March to schedule the surgery and she expects that to be in April) because I wanted to get it all done as quickly as I could. They are very fast to respond with any questions and getting appointments were easy and flexible which is great considering they are an extremely popular and busy business. I also found out that I have severe Sleep Apnea so I am extremely grateful to find this out and I wouldn’t have known if I hadn’t started this process. I had suspected I may have had Sleep apnea a couple years back after I quit smoking but now I know I have a severe case. I am now using a CPap machine every night for about two weeks now and I can already tell the difference, my “brain fog” as I called it and daytime sleepiness is GONE. Dr. Patterson seems like a very straight to point sort of person and I really appreciate that, she gets right to the point without dancing around things and tells you exactly what you need to do, I wasn’t sure which surgery I wanted to do in the beginning but Dr. Patterson went through much of my history and she recommended a Sleeve Gastrectomy so she was very helpful in helping me decide which surgery is right for me. I will absolutely be referring Dr. Patterson to anyone that is interested in any kind of Bariatric surgery, she knows her stuff and you’ll be in good hands
