Patient Reviews
Feb 16, 2022
Dr. Bendewald listened to my concerns and treated me as if I was important. Many doctors have brushed off my health concerns and he was different. I felt very cared for when working with him and the rest of his team in the weight management department at SSM. He explained the different surgeries and helped to weight pros and cons specific to my situations. The surgery went smoothly and I would recommend him to others.
