Indukumar Sonpal Bariatric Surgeon M.D.,F.A.C.S.

Dr. Sonpal was really great as a surgeon. When my husband and I met with him, he included my husband a lot in the conversation and so that put my husband at ease with my decision to have this surgery. After the surgery Dr. Sonpal and the staff were very concerning and helpful. The helped make this surgery a lot easier to endure. I am recuperating at home and feeling great. Thanks to St.Vincent's and the Cleveland Bariatric Surgery Center - Kudos!

I love this man! He was so funny and nice, he took the time to answer all my questions and my hubby's questions too.. i would recommend anyone to go to St Vincent!

Dr Sonpal and his staff have benn very helpful in my understanding, and knowledge of what will happen, and what to expect.

I am going for pre admission testing on 2/6/03, and should be able to tell more after that about the doctor.

At first impression, Dr Sonpal appears to be very quiet and to the point. After a few visits with him post surgery I have found that he has one of the funniest senses of humor of anyone that I have ever met. Everyone I have come in contact with tells me he is one of if not the finest Bariatric surgeon in the area of the country and I have no reason not to believe them now. He is one of the finest people I have ever met. Although your time with him is short due to his very busy schedule. I think some of the people take that wrong. Once you get to know him, you appreciate all that he does for his patients. He has a very structured program and I will be seeing him again three weeks post op for a check up. This is my fifth surgery but the first with Dr Sonpal and St Vincent Charity Hospital. If I ever need any other type of surgical care, they will be my first choice.

Dr. Sonpal is a very attractive man who has a very detectable bedside manner. He asked me questions about my lifestyle and medications. I told him that I have more than 5 co-workers who are successfully post-op. After hearing that I was accustom to an above average amount of physical activity, I believe that he then decided that I was a good candidate for the procedure. I was encouraged by the smile on his face when he told me to pay my association fee at the receptionist window. Not that I was prepared to pay, but he was welcoming me into the family! And that was extremely encouraging.

I met Dr Sonpal only at my primary interview. He is very knowledgable and straightforward. He took his time with my husband and myself and made sure we understood all the implications about the procedure, change of lifestyle, risks and outcome. I liked him very much and as an R.N. myself I have fully researched this myself. I have all the faith and confidence in the world in Dr. Sonpal and those he trusts to take care of me post-op.

I really liked Dr. Sonpal. His visits were short, I wish he would have spent more time, but he was very informative when I did have questions. The staff was helpful and very nice. I think the doctor and staff have a very good pre op information session and the aftercare was good as well. I would recommend Dr. Sonpal and his staff.

I loved Dr. Sonpal. I felt very comfortable with him and enjoyed his sense of humor.

I have only seen him one time, he was very thorough about the procedure. He knew, that I was very committed about this surgery. I am happy with my choice of programs.

My husband came with me when I met with Dr. Sonpal. We really had a good impression of him. he seems to be very knowledgeable and to have a good sense of humor. This is important to me. I want a knowledgeable doctor, but I also want them to have a good bedside manner. I was impressed with the office staff i dealt with as well.
