I highly recommend Dr. Michael Morell for gallbladder surgery. He is kind, compassionate, and explained everything clearly. I felt heard during my appointments and felt great after my procedure. My post-surgery visit went smoothly as well. After having poor experiences with other doctors in the past, I didn't want to miss the opportunity to express this excellent care I received. I had trouble getting the office QR code to work a few weeks ago, but I wanted to make sure I still left this well-deserved positive review. Thank you for the wonderful care! read more

I can't say enough good things about Dr. Sunil Bhoyrul and his team. Having bariatric surgery with him has truly changed my life. Since surgery, I no longer struggle with high blood pressure, I feel more energetic, and mentally I feel sharper and more focused than I have in a long time. I've even been able to stop taking my ADHD medication under my medical care. Dr. Bhoyrul made me feel confident and well cared for throughout the entire process. This wasn't just about losing weight for me--it was about getting my health and quality of life back. I'm incredibly grateful for the difference this surgery has already made and would highly recommend Dr. Bhoyrul to anyone considering bariatric surgery. read more

What other great things can I say about Dr. Bhoyrul that has already been said in other reviews but I will give it a shot. There are many people who have trouble finding their calling but that's clearly not the case with Dr. Bhoyrul. He is the best Gastro doctor and surgeon, period. I was having gastro issues for quite a while and I had seen several other gastroenterologist and none of them could come up with an accurate diagnosis. I did some research and homework and thank god I found Dr. Sunil Bhoyrul. He is extremely professional, caring and an expert at his craft. I am completely indebted to him and his staff as I was in dire need or I would not be here today. His staff, including front office are always a delight to work with and very caring to their patients. Special thank to Kirsten and Kelly. I could just go on and on about how awesome these folks are. Thank you Dr. Bhoyrul and staff! read more

I was so happy that Dr. Broyrul performed my emergency abdominal surgery, Highly recommend Dr. Broyrul, he is warm, caring and answered all of my questions and my husbands. We were treated like family from the very start. Highly recommend Dr. Broyrul for GI issues. It has been 7 months since my surgery and everything has been going well with no complications and very minimal scarring. Thank you read more

Wish I could give Dr. Bortz 100 stars! He performed a robotic inguinal hernia mesh repair surgery on me yesterday and I can't believe how well it went! Dr. Bortz is beyond amazing, I have very little pain just 1 day post op, moving around with ease and was taken aback by his dedication to making sure I got the right pain meds. His team goes above and beyond to make sure that you get the care you need, all with a smile, some laughs, and incredible bed side manner. Isis and Jessica were beyond incredible as well, they made me feel like I was a priority and like they really cared Can't recommend them enough! read more

I had Roux NY surgery for weight loss 22 years ago. During that time I had two major revisions and too many ER trips to even recall. During a planned visit to San Diego in October I became very ill. When I say ill I mean vomiting for hours with no relief despite the four different rescue meds I carried with me. My daughter takes me to Scripps ER on day 3. The doctor there was great, he saw nothing on imaging but really emphasized the importance of me seeing Dr. Bhoyrul to follow up. They were able to get me in at Olde Del Mar with Dr. Bhoyrul. One of the first things he said to me was," would you be interested in reversing your bypass. Without hesitation I said yes not knowing it was even possible. One week later I had laparoscopic surgery to determine if it could be done safely after living 22 years with malnutrition and low body weight. The following week I went in for the laparoscopic gastric bypass reversal. It went fantastically. No complications and more importantly I'm 4 months in and am finally starting to feel like myself. I eat well, very well. I don't panic at the thought of what food could do to me anymore. I got my life back. I could go on about Dr. Bhoyrul but instead of just singing his praises I want people to know there is hope, there is a way back to a normal life and a normal relationship with food. If you're on the fence. Just meet the man. He is exceptional. read more

I have copied below from the review I did on Dr Bortz (additional Yelp listing). I have an immediate family member who recently required non-bariatric surgery and I am so grateful that we chose to have the procedure done by Dr. Bortz. He was recommended to us by a family friend, so we were feeling pretty comfortable with the decision but he has surpassed all expectations in the quality of care provided. I work as a advanced practice clinician, so I am pretty meticulous in overseeing the care my family receives and I must say, he is phenomenal. His care is thorough and his bedside manner is fantastic. I really appreciated all the care from the preoperative period to postoperative. Additionally, his staff is excellent as well. I have called his office several times with questions and the staff is courteous and efficient. I highly recommend Dr Bortz for any procedures that you may need performed. read more

Earlier this year I had a VERY SUDDEN case of diverticulosis, with no warning. I lift weights 6 days a week, walk 4 miles a day, eat really healthy and am exceptionally fit. Out of nowhere I had a grossly distended stomach, no energy and feeling awful, I checked into Scripps LaJolla ER. A scan revealed that my colon had actually burst. I was operated on the next day. I had no choice of who did the surgery and consider myself the luckiest person alive to have Dr Mike Morell and his partners at Olde Del Mar Surgical, Dr Pascal Bortz and Dr Sunil Bhoyrul also work on me. There was sepsis, 8 inches of colon removed, then a 2-week hospital stay. I am now 4 months past the surgery, am 100% and actually better than before. I can't recommend these guys enough. They saved my life. read more

Hello, my name is Elizabeth Chevalier I was an emergency patient of Dr. Bortz. HE SAVED MY LIFE!!!! I was admitted into ER at Scripps with serve abdominal pain/ swollen abdomen. After a scan they noticed a huge infected cyst in my abdomen. I met Dr. Bortz at in-patient he was SO kind and caring. He informed me of the severity of my "cyst" and that it had to be removed the safest way possible. I felt beyond confident and comfortable with him preforming such a serious surgery. He has the best bedside manner! When Dr. Bortz preformed the surgery with Dr. Sunil Bhoyrul they were shocked to find a huge mesenteric lymphangioma tumor. The surgery was way more serious than anticipated and the tumor could have killed me had it not been carefully by this amazing Dr. Bortz. I cannot thank him enough !!! It has been 4 months since my surgery and i feel like i have a second chance at life. God bless you Dr. Bortz & Dr. Sunil Bhoyrul I have attached a few pictures of the tumor. I am still in shock that was inside of me. Love, Elizabeth Chevalier read more

Del Mar Surgical is amazing! Dr Pascal Bortz is who did my surgery and I could not be any happier. I had gastric bypass on 3/14/22 and I'm down 120 pounds! The whole staff is amazing and I always feel very welcomed when I go to my follow ups. I have VERY minimal scarring and have not had any complications. If you are looking to have weight loss surgery done, I highly recommend speaking with them and going over your options. They are there every step of the way. They give you their recommendations but ultimately let you make your own decision. FIVE STARS over and over! read more

My husband had suffered years of unnecessary pain from a hiatal hernia and an umbilical hernia. He had seen multiple doctors who weren't able give us answers or had been dismissive until we met Dr. Sunil Bhoyrul. He first positions himself to understand the party he is addressing by actively listening. I can't stress that enough. When first introduced to Dr. Bhoyrul, he asked my husband what he did for a living, he said "engineer". He explained my husband's diagnostic results and his condition in terms he could understand. He listened to my husband's concerns and research we had done on our own which actually some of the publications had referenced Dr. Bhoyrul's work. His holistic approach to medicine and in his assessment and treatment of my husband has been phenomenal. He had also referred us to specialists that he trusted implicitly for other conditions my husband has been suffering from as well. We came out of our visit with him more informed and reassured in one day than we did in the last two months. He has really set the bar of what healthcare standards in this country should be. He has been a God send to us. read more

Love Dr.Bhoyrul, he treats you like family and all his staff is amazing. I got RNY back in 2019 and went from 289 to 168 ...3 years out and holding steady. It has been tough, ngl, but the staff is extremely supportive and they listen to your needs and act accordingly. When you have bypass they are on top of you and labs like clockwork to make sure any deficiencies are managed and controlled appropriately. I still keep up with my check ups since the after care is for life which I think it's great! Extremely grateful to have found em read more

Dr. Bhoyrul and Kirsten are phenomenal! I went to a couple doctors and GI specialists before them and they told me I had no hernia and they couldn't figure out my abdominal pain or why I needed 100 mg of Prilosec a day just to make it though. I was told I was just stressed and that I had to be lying about the amount of tums and Prilosec I was taking just to barely get through my day. During my first visit after only 2 min Dr. Bhoyrul looked at my 3 year old endoscopy photos and said you have a hiatal hernia. I had surgery for it and even though the procedure was some of the most intense two weeks of pain I've had I fully healed and did well. But a problem was still there. I had an eating disorder that absolutely destroyed my body and even after surgery and being in remission from my ED I had horrible nausea and vomiting and stabbing intense abdominal pain. I went to the ER multiple times crying into a pillow and belching wondering what was happening to me. I finally got an abdominal ultrasound after non stop harassing my doctors for one. Sure enough it showed gallbladder sludge. I avoided surgery for my gallbladder removal as I didn't want to get a second surgery and wanted to see if I could keep that organ. But it was so bad I couldn't live like that anymore. I told Del Mar Surgical care team that I was in a lot of pain and sweating after meals, I was losing a lot of weight, and couldn't maintain like this. I have a pretty high pain threshold and this was one of the worst pains I've ever experienced chronically. They encouraged me to follow through and get my gallbladder surgery so I did reluctantly. It CHANGED MY LIFE! I am now able to eat all the foods I couldn't before like whole eggs, butter, red meat, and even olive oil! I gained the healthy weight back and no longer look emaciated. They have saved my life twice and I am so grateful for their kindness but also their perceptiveness towards my deteriorating health. They really care about what they do and perfecting their craft, I would not be alive with their help. He even used some of the same incisions from my hernia surgery to do my gallbladder removal surgery and the way he closed off the wound the second time the scar looks even better. I'm absolutely blown away by the meticulous attention to detail and the mastery of the art of surgery they achieved with me. I was very depressed and had dark thoughts for so long that have been lifted by hope and determination and surgical intervention to achieve a better life for myself. I can't thank them enough for the life they've put back into my eyes. My friends have even said I have more color and fullness to me these days, that my demeanor is positive and uplifting, and I am able to work without fear of being doubled over against the floor in agony after eating something. These people are experts at their profession and I highly recommend going here if you have any GI issues! You are in the best hands possible. read more

I'm not sure where to start about my journey, I guess I'll start with my start weight was 385. I was very uphappy, unmotivated zero energy, depressed and felt hopeless. I decided to get the gastric bypass surgery. The best decision I made in my life. The surgery changed my life for the better. I'm so much happier active have so much energy it's amazing. Dr.Bortz aka "gifted hands" did a great job and is always encouraging. Rachel is a great dietitian. She never judged me when I fell short I appreciated that. I've now lost 90 pounds. I had surgery Oct 25 2021! I can't believe how I look. I'm still adjusting to my appearance but overall I'm happy! If your reading this review thinking about getting the surgery stop thinking and schedule an appointment now! Of course when your ready but stop getting cold feet about a life changing experience. Thank you Del Mar Surgical staff!!! Your forever in my heart! read more

In a world where doctor-patient relationships can often feel "numbed by numbers," Dr. Sunil Bhoyrul's thoughtful bedside manner and in-depth care for his patient -- my beloved mother, Elsa Hock -- has breathed new Hope for both her case and for the notion that considerate and expert specialists like Dr. Bhoyrul maintain the thoughtful and in-depth doctor-patient care we most desire for our closest loved ones. My mother, Elsa, is not only the "rock" of our family -- she is the rarest of gems to her children and to this world, especially given her history as a caregiver herself -- so when she said that Dr. Bhoyrul makes her feel comfortable & cared for as a patient, I know she doesn't say that lightly. To see Mom receive the care and expertise that any person would hope for their dearest loved ones makes us most grateful to Dr. Bhoyrul. From performing two surgeries on my mom -- the first to remove her gall bladder and the second to fix a hiatal hernia -- to keeping my mom hopeful and in high spirits regarding her ongoing recovery, Dr. Bhoyrul has done an incredible job of earning my mom's trust as his patient by consistently showing my mom and her unique medical case his most respectful and personalized attention and by keeping ongoing efforts transparent with every surgery and check-in's. For this, we highly recommend Dr. Bhoyrul to any patient seeking expert medical care that is given in the most thoughtful and personalized manner. We extend our deepest gratitude to Dr. Bhoyrul and Team for his and their thoughtful care! Thank you from the Hock, Garcia & Horwitz Families. read more

As many other reviews have said, Dr. Bhoyru and the reset of the staff are very good. The surgery went off with out any hitches and the weight loss has been great. The reduced amount of stars come from the billing departments. Long story short, we were mislead into agreeing to pay for the surgery out of our own pocket even though insurance did indeed approve the claim. After a lengthy battle (18 + months) they have convinced the insurance company that they don't owe a refund even though it had been approved. Just be sure you are aware of what will be covered and what isn't so you don't get stuck with thousands out of your pocket. read more

Great experience for me. Dr Bhoyrul is a very nice doctor and listen to you. You don,t feel like a number and everybody takes time for you.I would recommend Dr Bhoyrul! read more

I cannot even express how great my experience was/is at Olde Del Mar. I found them because they had the best comments and rating online and I am so glad they live up to that hype. I got the vertical sleeve surgery and it was the most easiest and thorough process I have ever had. They make you feel so comfortable and make sure you are making the right decision in your journey. From day 1 they are so attentive to all your questions and concerns. Dr. Matthew Cooper is amazing as I'm sure all the doctors are. However, Dr. Cooper is very involved in every step! He did my surgery and made sure to see me after surgery and again the very next day on a Saturday when he didn't even work. He follows through with everything. At my 2 week post op, I already lost 20ish pounds and he was so proud of me. I also had the help of their registered dietician and she was so detailed on exactly what you eat and how much you eat. It really is a fail proof process. I have a life changing tool and I have them to thank for that. I am now 7 weeks post op and have lost close to 35 pounds. That's a lot for someone who didn't really have any direction on how to even lose weight. I am so found of Olde Del Mar and their staff. They are super friendly and really go out of their way to make sure you don't just feel like a patient but family. Thank you so much Dr. Cooper and staff! read more

Del Mar Surgical - Surgeons Near Me - La Jolla, California

If you read the reviews it is pretty consistent that Dr. Bhoyrul and his Nurse Practitioner Kirsten are amazing, after meeting them the reviews do not lie. Both of them make you feel like the most important patient that they have ever dealt with. They make you feel at ease and will answer any question that you have. Dr. Bhoyrul is extremely knowledgeable and has vast experience in laparoscopic surgery. He co-authored a textbook so he literally wrote the book on the subject. His bedside manner is amazing, he tells you in the pre op appointment that he will treat you like family and will never recommend anything to you that he wouldn't recommend to his family. He is always courteous and warm when he talks to you. I would recommend anyone to him. Anyone looking for bariatric surgeon should look no further. read more

I have been wanting to write this review for THREE years. I have a LOT to say. If you are thinking about getting gastric surgery with Dr. Bhoyrul... please read this. Let's start from the beginning. I was supposed to have a different weight loss surgery with a different doctor in September 2018. When the doctor went in for surgery she had to stop because she said I had a hiatal hernia. I was very confused because I had no digestive issues and very upset because at the time had paid out of pocket for elective surgery. Now January 2019 I began seeing Dr. Bhyorul and explained to him my situation. He recommended Gastric Sleeve and I was on board. He had me do an endoscopy with a doctor in that building he works with to see if I had a hernia or not because when doing the Sleeve Surgery they can fix the hernia at the same time. My endoscopy comes out showing NO HERNIA according to Dr. Bhoyrul. We proceeded with all the post op appointments including all the required dietician appointments. Insurance makes you do all these so that it looks like surgery was the last and final try to lose weight. I spent all together a few thousand on co-pays, dietician appointments, supplies from the office, deductibles, medications, AND unexpected hospital charges. I did not mind at the time. I wanted to get healthy. We are now in August 2019. I had Gastric Sleeve Surgery. I felt great. No pain, no issues. All the staff and doctors were so great and kind. Went on with my life. A few months later when I finally began having a few bites of solid food.. I started having problems. I would have like burp attacks. They would happen every single time I ate food.. no matter what kind and how little. It was getting worse to the point where it was BELCHING and I would have to sit alone for an hour after eating and belch very very loudly and be in so much pain. I complained about this to the doctors and to Kirsten. They brushed it off. I went home and started documenting these belching episodes. October 2020 a year later, I went back and played them for Dr. Bhoyrul. He immediately said "No, that is not normal. I need you to get and endoscopy immediately. You might have a hernia." I remember saying WHAT?? I literally was in shock. I kept saying I thought you checked for this last year before my surgery are you sure it's not something else?? I went and did the endoscopy and guess what... there's a hiatal hernia. Now what do I do? Scheduled the surgery for November 2020 to have the hiatal hernia removed. I was infuriated upset and frustrated. I am not a shallow person but the scar and trauma damage this surgery caused to my previous gastric wounds has left me feeling so sad. Everytime I look at my stomach I get so mad. Because Dr. Bhoyrul did NOT do his due diligence as a doctor the first time around I had to have surgery TWICE when it could have been taken care of the first time around. I literally have two belly buttons now thanks to him. Do you want to know what the absolute worst part is? The belching DID NOT go away. I told them this several times. I went in February 2021 and said I am still having these problems. They brushed me off and said there was literally nothing that can be done about it. It is now October 2022. While I am thankful for the weight loss I am in pain everyday. Every meal. I have a lot of friends who had gastric before and after me. None of them have these issues. I live in pain every single day and in shame because after a meal I need to lock myself and be alone so I can literally belch out the gas. Please if you are thinking of doing any surgery with this office specifically Dr. Bhoyrul I encourage you to look elsewhere. I believe something went wrong in my surgery and he wasn't honest about it. I also believe he did not do his job as a caretaker and look at my tests/medical records efficiently from the beginning. If anyone who had gastric with this office experiences the same pain and belching episodes I do, please reach out. read more

first, as a human being and physician and surgeon, there is no better person than Dr. Bhoyrul. He saved my life and is responsbile for all the good things that have happened in my life since my surgery.... but his staff has failed him miserably. I tried getting an appointment in November and December. I had two insurance carriers. The back office staff never told the doctor that I needed to see him desperately. The mental health effects of lap band surgery were glossed over. Yes, I met with a shrink but she rubber stamps everyone. I was part of a study and man oh man, am I grateful for that... and Dr. Bhoyrul squeezed me in. But I had serious issues with weight loss coming too rapidly -- over a 100 lbs... and at this stage, 12 years down the road, I'm 10 lbs away from my lightest ever, but that's too light at 173 lbs at 5'10.5". Twice since surgery I've desperately needed to see the good Doctor, who is an amazing surgeon and has incredible "bed side manners" because he cares about his patients, truly cares... but his staff made the red tape so onerous and distasteful and impossible... that I was unable to see him. The result? Thousands of dollars out of MY pocket because Del Mar surgical support staff don't care about people. I called dozens of times to try to make an appointment because MY band is out of whack. I had $$$, time, everything... yet they were determined to make it impossible to meet with MY doctor (not theirs) who saved my life but doesn't comprehend the mental health effects of too rapid weight loss and the danger of PUSHIN rapid weight loss, and you know you did. Would I recommend Dr. Bhoyrul? In a heart beat. Without question. But I'd also recommend he do some serious consideration about the heart in his staff. They care more about their paychecks than patients. My band hasn't been adjusted for years. No other physician wants to touch another doctor's work and few understand the wholistic need for not only stomach adaptation, but mentally losing weight after a life time of fat requires more study. I'm sure Dr. Bhoyrul would love to talk with me about this as I am with him... but his feckless staff will have to make an appointment with me and apologize for their feckless behavior and lack of heart and concern for Dr. Bhoyrul's patients. We may be fat, even after weight loss, but it didn't help to be in extremis and have his staff not give a damn. With profound regret, I leave this comment and destroy whatever thread of relationship i might have had with the finest surgeon bar none in San Diego. If this is what it takes so another patient NEVER is treated like this, so be it. -- Mark S. Schwartz Dallas Oregon, 1098 miles away now and still in extremis p.s. everyone loves him here on yelpe but i'm sad to see i'm not the only one who experienced an unpleasant incident with the back office manger. I'm absolutely certain it wasn't Kristy or Apurna (sp?) or a couple others, but his office has been plagued with junk yard dogs for office managers. read more

I am very grateful and feel super blessed to have been referred to Dr. Bhoyrul! Him and Kristen changed my life completely! Since day one he made me feel so comfortable and very at peace. The first day I met Dr. Bhoyrul he told me I will treat you like my daughter and four months later he still is. I have never met a doctor and staff that care so much about their patients! This has been my first surgery and the day of Doctor Bhoyrul ans Kristen made me feel at peace knowing I will be okay. One of the things I will forever be grateful with Dr. Bhoyrul will be that he saved my life! When he was doing my surgery he found my liver bad and very big. He said that if it was any other doctor they would of closed me back up and not done the surgery! I know he continued, because he cared for my health and wanted to see me be healthy!! Thank you for that Dr. Bhoyrul!! I will always be thankful! I am now 4 months post op and 117 lbs less! I feel healthy and the best I have ever been!! read more

I have been seeing David L Bortz, MD here for several months. He is a very thorough and caring physician. I've never had a doctor spend so much time in getting to know me and my medical issues. He's the best! read more

I'm not sure why I've never thought to give a review on my Gastric Bypass experience. My whole process was done within 2-3 months tops. My healing time took longer then normal not because of the doctor but Mother Nature and my own doing. Dr. B removed my gall bladder and did the full RnY surgery. Did it hurt? Yes (but I'm also a wuss and have a low pain threshold) I developed colitis because unbeknownst to anyone I was allergic to the standard antibiotic prescribed after the surgery. Because I had gastrointestinal intestinal issues for a year after the surgery I couldn't take the vitamins and I wish I would have. I went from 297 to 143 and by a miracle I was able to conceive. I have no doubt that I only got pregnant because of the surgery. My cousin and I were both infertile and both of us had the surgery and boom 1 year later pregnant with our miracle babies. Right now I'm 173 and I'm content knowing I will shed the weight with cardio and healthy eating. The surgery took care of my portion control. I did zero working out after the surgery and I wish I had. I will now start working out in hopes that I build my strength back! read more

Dr. Bhoyrul, NP Kirsten G. , and the rest of the staff are truly amazing! I am almost two years post op now and the entire experience of undergoing weight loss surgery (gastric sleeve) was made stress free thanks to this team. Dr. Bhoyrul is always incredibly attentive, caring, and ensures you are completely at ease. I have never felt more comfortable or in better hands than when seen by him. Kirsten mirrors this energy exactly! They've changed my life for the better and for the first time I have managed to maintain my weight (seventy pounds down from pre op) with ease because of all the knowledge of nutrition and exercise I've gained. I no longer stress about whether or not clothes will fit or feel tired constantly. I have energy like never before and am grateful my health is better than ever. I can't thank them enough for what they've done for me. They are an amazing team and I recommend wholeheartedly. read more

It's a challenge finding the strongest possible language to praise Dr. Bhoyrul and his nurse practitioner Kirsten for how smoothly they've just changed the course of my life.

He gave me security from the first day of my first consultation he treated me as if I were one of his own family. He looked at my eyes and he heard me out and that makes a big difference. I will extremely be grateful for the rest of my life with Dr. Bhoyrul and his assistant Kirsten and all the the work team.

Del Mar Surgical - Surgeons Near Me - La Jolla, California

All Dr. Bhoyril and staff care about is the bottom line (money). They charge you for dietician appointments before you even go to them. So I subtracted those from my last payment and they sent me to collections. This unethical establishment sent me to freaking COLLECTIONS for $164 for services I DID NOT RECEIVE. I told the accountant that I had not received those services and would not pay for them and she continued to bill me and then sent me to collections. Dr. Bhoyril gets an attitude and forgets who you are after surgery. Actually he was rude and ignored me the same day of my surgery when I saw him at the hospital. My credit report has gone down 53 points because I didn't want to pay them for services I never received. I would keep looking for a doctor and staff that actually care about the patients and not just the cash. read more

Most caring staff. Can't say enough about Dr. Bhoyrul and Kristen. They have always been there for me with all my health issues.

This TEAM including but not limited to Dr. B, has on several occasions saved my life. Although it takes implied effort on my part, the team provides critical supportive services in all phases of treatment. I'm a big fan. read more

Dr. Bhoyrul, Kirsten and his team are amazing and can't rave enough about them. Today is my second day post op and let me tell You I feel amazing. Dr. Bhoyrul and Kristen treat their patients as family and not just patient. I felt so comfortable after they came to talk to me in the pre-op room. I had a very bad anxiety before my surgery but just the reassuring look on their faces made my anxiety to decrease dramatically. Honestly Dr. Bhoyral and Kirsten are the best best surgeon and NP :) read more

Dr. Bhoyrul, Kirsten, Jackie and the team at Olde Del Mar Surgical are an amazing team. They treat you just like family. When I first met Dr. Bhoyrul he told me he'd treat me like his daughter, and for sure he does. They are all so patient and attentive making sure you'd be ready for what's ahead. I always enjoy going to see them and love that I'm continually just like family to them. They made sure I was ready for the RNY and made sure I knew what I was getting into. They help me to better myself and I cannot thank the team enough for taking my hand and walking with me through it all. read more

thankfully my Dad, 81, found Dr. Bhoyrul thru Yelp, he had laparoscopic Hiatal Hernia surgery three weeks ago (1-9-19) and couldn't be better. The recovery was fast, they expected 2-3 nights in the hospital but after just one night Dr. Bhoyrul visited approximately 9am and said he could go home around lunch!!! I stayed overnight with my Dad after the surgery at Scripps Memorial off Genesee where the staff & room was amazing. This doctor cares deeply for each patient. It is very obvious in his words and actions. Note: prior to the surgery my father had his esophagus dilated by an ENT due to difficulty swallowing which led to complications including pneumonia so if you or loved one has both challenges I recommend the hernia surgery first to reduce the acid that could come up more easily once the esophagus is enlarged. read more

Totally discouraged. I wish I never had the gastric bypass. I'm still in severe pain and constant nausea. When I called the Drs office for support like it says to do on hospital discharge paperwork i was scolded by the receptionist asking me "why I am calling there? It's just a surgeons office. I need to go to the ER or PCP". So I went to the ER and nothing was wrong but Dr said I was still recovering and needed more pain meds. Here I am 2 weeks post surgery and still in severe pain and nausea. Not one call from the Drs office to check on me and I'm deathly afraid to call them. Any ways that's my experience. Make sure u do your research. D read more
