Patient Reviews
Jan 09, 0029
Dr. Ramirez helped saved my life! He is the most compassionate, caring, loving doctors I've ever met! He and his staff takes this more than just a job, they treat you like family. I'm located in another city and I was referred to him and was told he was the best. So, I drove 4 hours. I was anxious and scared, but when I got to the hospital and saw him I felt so comfortable because I know I was in good hands. Trust me, if you want a bariatric surgeon you will not find one better than this doctor. He calls you, answer all of your questions, and take time with his patients. I had a challenging situation, because I had a stroke with paralyses and other medical issues such as diabetes. He treated me with such good care! He's confident and prayerful all the way. I love him and his staff for helping me to have a quality of life...
