Sidney Rohrscheib Bariatric Surgeon M.D.

He was very helpful & information was given that I was very anxious to have the surgery. The nursing staff is very helpful & helped alot with insurance information that I could get approved & not have to do alot of running around for information at the wrong time, I could do it at the beginning & get approved quickly. My impression didn't change when I meet them,I still think they are great. He talked about after surgery care, about take time to heal & try not to lay around after surgery but to get right up so the healing process can take place quicker. They said that everyone recovery is different & surgery danger is dangerous as any other surgery you may have.Beside manners is best to me.

I was very pleased and very at ease leaving his office.

Dr. Rohrscheib and his staff were very pleasant and knowledgeable. The Dr. took the time to answer all my questions. He fully explained the surgery, the risks, and the benefits.

Dr. Rohrscheib's staff took care of all my paperwork, and it went more smoothly than I anticipated. So far, I am thoroughly impressed with the doctor and his entire office.

Very nice and caring man. Explained everything very well. Took time to answer my questions as well as any my husband had. Only made me realize more so, that this is the surgeon and surgery for me!!

After some checking, I changed from Dr. Charles in Decatur simply because he's performed so few of this type of surgery. I was directed to Dr. R. and met with him about two weeks ago. I was impressed with his staff and his knowledge of the subject. Today I looked him up on this site and was very impressed with the number of good comments about him, so now I am resting a little easier. All paperwork has been submitted and should know in a week or two whether I am approved.

I really liked Dr. Rohrscheib from the get-go. He came in the room and explained in detail to me and my husband what the surgery consisted of and how it would make the pain in my back and knees be relieved alot within the first 6 weeks after surgery. His staff was also very nice and helpful with insurance stuff.

Dr Rohrscheib seemed very nice straight to the point,and lets you know what to expect. His office is located in a small town in IL the staff are EXCELLANT! very nice and understanding & very helpfull. They took care of all my insurance information, all I did was meet with the dr once and the next time I see him It will be for surgery.The Dr. stated many times that I would have to be in this for the long hall keeping up with my aftercare visits.

i met with dr. rohrscheib on july 18th, 2002. he was very thorough in illistrations and communicating to my husband and i about the pros and cons of the surgery. he seemed very nice and so did his office workers.the only time i felt rushed was afterwards when i speaking with rita. i guess i was keeping them from going to lunch.so, i guess next time i will ask for an appt. after lunch-other than that the whole office was very professional.

Dr Rohrscheib explained the procedure to me very well. He seems to be very caring. He also explained the risk involved.
The nurse was great also. Rita the office lady is very professional, and gets the results for you in a very timely manner.
Since my consultation on May 1, 2002 we have talked several times...

3-13-02 I met with my surgeon for the first time today for my pre-op. I loved him. I feel he is very open and compassionate about his patients and his clinical skills are superior. His communication skills are excellent. He kept asking if I had questions. He was not bothered about my previous medical history, he stated he would much rather do surgery on me knowing what my problems have been then someone he knows nothing about and then gets surprised. I was so impressed with his attitude. His nurse Terri was wonderful she is a lady of prayer and I can tell lives her faith. Terri was compassionate also and made me feel very special. The nutrionist is the doctor's wife Chris and she was sweet also she was very informative and kind and professional. She answered all my questions and I know I will have more. She said call me anytime. The front office girl is Rita who takes care of the insurance. She is very helpfull. The whole staff are just wonderfull.
.7-12-02 Dr. Rorshceib called me on the phone today to check how I was feeling? He is the best. I feel so priveledged to have a doc who cares and is compassionate to his patiens. I am so thank full he is my doctor I highly recommend him to anyone.
