Dr. Kukreja is a great doctor/surgeon. He takes time to explain what to expect during surgery. He put me at ease and I had every confidence in him and his staff.

After years of waiting and deciding, I made the decision to “just do it”. From the time I contacted Dr. Hooper’s office, this journey, MY journey, was truly all about me. Dr. Hooper was the trains conductor and MY journey was going in a forward motion and gaining speed. Everybody in the office was concerned with me and MY journey. I’ve never had something so important be all about me. I have felt (and do feel) like I am the only patient in the clinic. Within 5 months of contact, I was having surgery!!! Still… the focus had never left from ME! It is still all about me. I have a support team at home but feeling like my initial support team was Dr Hooper and the staff made this decision all the way right. Surgery came and went and everything is going seemlessly… and… you guessed it! It is still all about me!!!! Dr Hooper and her staff are the absolute BEST!!! Bar none!

Surgery came and went and everything is going seemlessly… and… you guessed it! It is still all about me!!!! I was never made to feel like I couldn’t ask a question. I was never made to feel like I was a bother. I was never made to feel anything except important. I’m not that far into MY JOURNEY (partially because of the speed of the HOOPER TRAIN that I’m on) but I wholeheartedly can say this is one of the best decisions of my life!!! If anyone is thinking about a life change, I urge you to use Dr Hooper. So JUST DO IT and climb aboard your own train. You will not be sorry. EVER. “Thank you” just doesn’t seem enough for all the attention I’m receiving. Dr. Hooper and her staff are the best. Bar none!

Dr. Kukreja and his office staff were unbelievably helpful and provided the best experience I could have imagined through the whole process. I live out of town, so the office went through all they could to complete everything via virtual visits. The gastric sleeve was the best thing I could have done for my health, and each person from the dietician to the surgical staff, knew exactly what I needed to be successful with my gastric sleeve. I've recommended them to my mom, and she is in the process of the pre-op appointments. She is also having an easy time of completing everything necessary and feels great about the decision. I'd recommend them to anyone looking to move forward in their health and fitness journey!
