Bariatric Surgery Performed: RNY

Date of Surgery: 12/16/2024
Bariatric Surgery Performed: RNY

I couldn’t have asked for a better experience with Dr. Ben-Meir. When I met him during my initial consultation, he took time to fully walk me through my bariatric options and answer any questions I may have. He was patient, kind, and looked me in the eye and listened to every word I said. We ultimately decided that gastric bypass would be the best option for me and my goals.

The day of surgery, he came into my room and asked how I’m feeling and if I had any questions for him. After I woke up from anesthesia, I was met by my parents and nurses. My parents informed me that Dr. Ben-Meir took them into a private room and fully debriefed them about my surgery, including his repair of a hiatal hernia I didn’t know I had. He drew diagrams for my parents and ensured no question was left unanswered.

At the end of a long day, Dr. Ben-Meir made sure to visit me in my room and ask how I’m feeling and if I had questions. He visited me once again in the morning – I was in pain and he promised me that this would be the worst day, and he was right. He also reiterated his 5 lifelong rules to success.

I am now 7 months post-op and I have had absolutely no complications. I am healthy, happy, and strong. Dr. Ben-Meir is an insanely talented surgeon and generous doctor, I am blessed to have been in his care.
