Mar 15, 2024
I was nervous getting started in my Bariactric journey. From the very beginning, Dr. Patching made me feel safe and throughout the journey it was amazing having his support and knowledge to ease my nerves. The actual surgery was a breeze. Little to no pain the day after and even when waking up from surgery. He truly is the best around and I cannot recommend him enough. Thank you for changing my life Dr Patching!!

About Me

Care Philosophy

  • We offer the latest, state-of-the-art minimally invasive surgery and robotic surgery available, and we were one of the earliest advanced laparoscopic programs in the United States.   Regarding our bariatric (obesity) program, we do not believe in just operating on our patients, but integrate a very successful program to improve their eating and exercise habits simultaneously to maximize their  weight loss, with very few patients regaining their weight back.   We believe in following our patients for life ensuring they will receive the highest level of care available.  We want not only for our patients to become healthier, but to lead the happiest and most fulfilling lives possible, that is our ultimate goal.
