Dr. Vaziri was really efficient with each appointment, but he was also willing to listen to all of the concerns I had about certain parts of the surgery. He let me adjust the treatment plan so that I felt more comfortable (I'm one of those patients who has a question about everything). I really appreciated his infinite patience with me--through every pre-op and post-op appointment, he really did make me feel like the most important patient he has even though most of his surgeries are much more technically challenging or unusual/interesting. If I ever need abdominal surgery again, my first thought will be to request Dr. Vaziri.

I had a j tube placed. I had severe complications following the surgery and the er called him and he said to send me home and he would see me in 5 days. I ended up in the hospital for 1 month because of the complications. He never did any follow up with me. I would not recommend him.

Dr. Vaziri's bedside manner is outstanding!!! My surgery was one of the best experiences I've ever had, he explained the whole procedure to me and made sure I was comfortable with my decision to have Bariatric Surgery. I would highly recommend him for your Bariatric Surgery...
