Very through.


Aug 05, 2024

The only bad experiences is with receptions answering the phone,or not returning messages. My yearly check up post Gastric bypass was 18 months before they called.

Stelllar surgeon best describes Dr Halpin.


Jul 15, 2024

Dr Halpin is amazing. Her MA was also great!


Jul 11, 2024

Had a great visit


Jul 04, 2024

Always helpful and friendly staff and providers. Front office could be friendlier and more warm, but it's not critical. Scheduling staff are amazing! I always feel well respected and well taken care of here.


Jul 03, 2024

All good experiences. No cpmplaints


Jun 26, 2024

Everyone is really caring


Jun 20, 2024

My provider is excellent. I only see her on an annual basis, but she is available if I need to visit her earlier. I always look forward to our appointments as she is warm and caring and provides insightful recommendations.


Jun 18, 2024

I live more than a hour away from this Doctors office. My appointment including registration time , time with the nurse AND time with the Surgeon took less than 15 minutes. That's a lot of driving for only a 15 minute appointment. Very frustrating


Jun 08, 2024

Dr. Meyer and his nurse Cindy are the best of the best the respect they show one another raises their game in my view. The whole staff was great I was welcomed with total care and respect. Dr. Meyer's personality is very uplifting my wife and I walked of his office saying can you believe this guy he's got it together his professionalism is off the charts. Thanks for asking.


Jun 08, 2024

So helpful, I was embarrassed and struggling and everyone was so kind, reassuring and helpful


Jun 06, 2024

Excellent care. Everyone I encountered was very professional and courteous


Jun 06, 2024

Todo bien


May 30, 2024

She cares about my problems. Discussed options.


May 30, 2024

Everyone was great, thank you so much. Really wish you would ask me about my stay in the hospital after my surgery though! (Nothing to do with this doctor or this office, to be clear.)


May 28, 2024

Dr Travis listens actively and makes sure that you are part of the conversation. Great surgeon and great professional and bedside manners


May 22, 2024

The African-American Lady who is at the front desk was so rude to me and she has done this twice to me.She never smiled she is not friendly she is just so rude!!I really don't like being treated rudely from her.This has to stop and please talk to her being more respectful.


May 16, 2024

I love the Staff at Weight Management Program. Very kind and supportive at all times. They're My Family :-)


Apr 03, 2024

Always super friendly staff. Thank you!


Apr 03, 2024

I was very happy with this experience overall! The staff at checking in, making sure on my insurance, waiting to speak with the doctor, and then the whole experience with the doctor was just wonderful!!


Mar 27, 2024

Everyone is friendly and respect to others .


Mar 27, 2024

Doctor is poor ar follow up and knowing anything about after care complications. Passes that to the patient to ask other doctors instead . Dis not schedule enough time w me based in the severity of my situation. Not able to address any of the implications that resulted from complex and emergency surgeries that resulted from their care.


Mar 22, 2024

Everyone is very nice it's just impossible to get scheduled for procedures


Mar 20, 2024

I enjoy coming to this office. Everyone is so helpful & caring.


Mar 14, 2024

It was very organized, they explained to me well all the risks of the barriatic surgery


Mar 12, 2024

The lady that scheduled color up appointments is consistently rude. Never nice or approachable. She made my preop appts without asking me my schedule, so when I asked to change them due to my work schedule, she was extremely rude. Unprofessional


Mar 05, 2024

I am very comfortable talking yo Dr Halpin & know I will respect her medical advice.


Mar 01, 2024

I live in Salem, I'm only coming here for weightloss surgery. My normal clinic/Doctors office is in Salem so this is to out of the way to recommend.


Feb 21, 2024

The doctor is very knowledgable but I feel she has poor listening skills and is rigid in her thinking. She is also not very welcoming or supportive, and spends 90% of the visit time looking into/working on her computer rather than conversing with me. This is extremely off-putting.


Feb 13, 2024

Dr. Jay Jan is an awesome surgeon I am happy I choose him to do my surgery. I have referred several friends and family to him after my surgery


Feb 10, 2024

Doctor was amazing, front desk needs help. Most times they don't give you the time of day. This time I got a very stand off ish greeting and checking process, but the person behind me was greeted with smiles, conversations, excitement. Didn't make me feel very welcomed when it's so inconsistent. The front desk person literally said 6 words to me. "Checking in, last name, and all set" nothing else. The next person in got a completely different and positive experience. Makes me wonder why I was treated differently.


Feb 05, 2024

Excellent service


Feb 01, 2024

She is always ready to listen, she explains things, she is one of the most caring providers I've seen at the weight loss clinic. She is a cheerleader for her patients


Jan 26, 2024

Always a pleasure being greeted by Staff


Jan 23, 2024

Jan 04, 2024

Good visit, short and to the point.


Jan 03, 2024

Saw 3 providers. All not only looked at my physical wellbeing but my mental also. Came away with many questions answered and feeling better about myself as well as my ongoing problems due to my weight loss program.


Dec 19, 2023

My visits are always on time and all my questions and concerns are answered.


Dec 15, 2023

Just to be fair, Dr. MEYER HAD AN EMERGENCY SURGERY, WE WERE CUT SHORT. I WILL SEE HIM SOON AGAIN. I REALLY LIKED HIM.
