I'm 10 years out of my gastric surgery and the frustration of trying to explain my side effects to "regular" doctors is horrible. I finally have someone who truly understands, and has offered real solutions. I look forward to seeing him again. "

      His staff is also very friendly and helpful. It's truly a pleasure to interact w/ his entire staff.

      "I came to Dr. McKeen after being banded for 7 years with questions and concerns about the band. Many of my questions were exactly the same questions I had before the banding. He was incredibly patient and provided me with facts and education about the procedure. He supports his patients and their choices, never pressures, or judges. I have always had perfect expirees going to see Dr. McKeen."

      "What's not to love about Dr. McKeen? ....other than his decorator. In a word "YUK". The office decor is anything other than warm or friendly. I really dislike all of it. The old office waiting room was size friendly, easy to get up off of and warm & inviting. Sorry, but its screamin DO OVER...that includes the exam rooms as well."

      "Hi Doc and staff. I have had and continue to have wonderful experiences. Through the explanation of various procedures to the actual operations, I have had nothing but positive and encouraging results. It's so refreshing to meet someone that actually takes the time to empathize with a persons inner turmoil and show me that there is a light at the end of the tunnel. My particular situation was one that left me feeling hopeless and worthless. I felt a weak man for not being able to control my own health issues. But not anymore. Thanks Doc, and thanks to your staff also."

      "Dr. McKeen, Kelly, and Ali have been terrific in helping me get the care I needed. I am in the health care field, and had a hard time dealing with my insurance company. Both Kelly and Ali fierce patient advocates on my behalf, and I will be forever grateful, because left to my own devices, I might have given up. Dr. McKeen is an excellent physician and skilled surgeon. He has a respectful, and compassionate bedside manner. All physicians should aspire to be like him. "

      "I have had a great experience with Dr. McKeen and all of his staff The first appointment, the pre-op, surgery and the continued post-op have been seamless!! Any questions or concerns I have are immediately answered. I've always been able to get a hold of someone even after hours. This was a life changing decision to have bariatric survey and I couldn't be more pleased with my experience with Dr McKeen and his staff. "

      "I like everyone else want to accomplish weight loss. Various reasons for sure. Taking these steps to obtain a goal can sometimes be difficult. However, the reason we wanted the weight loss is prime motivator. Do not lose sight of the primary goal. Figure out a second and even a third or more goals to help in getting accomplished the primary. As iwe all will go through the stages it paramount to recover from anything that might take us off course of meeting our success. I have purposely put our, we, etc in this because if you ever need help go to Dr. McKeen and ask.... He is and has been there for me."
