I had my gallbladder removed last week due to Cholecystitis. This man is an incredible Physician and Surgeon. He educated me on the gallbladder its function and what happens when it’s not functioning properly. It can be scary to just remove an organ even though it’s one you can live without. Dr. made it very clear how this can become a serious matter quickly and often at the wrong time and place. He stressed not to ignore it and think you can manage it through diet. I suffered 18months trying to mange through diet and now that it’s out it’s amazing how well I feel in one week! I had minimal pain and discomfort. Only took Tylenol for a few days. Now I can travel and socialize and not feel stressed. A huge Thank You to Dr Patchings and his incredible staff who are very helpful and available to answer any questions or concerns. I highly recommend Dr Patchings his skills and practice are outstanding.⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️

I had gastric sleeve surgery with Dr. Steven Patching, after I was suffering from excess weight that caused me many diseases, Physical, psychological, sadness, misery, depression, stress and constant anxiety. The decision of the surgery was made after several attempts to lose weight to no avail. Thank God I made the right decision. Let me tell you that I was nervous and afraid to have this operation, but Dr. Stephen Patching He reassured me that I would be fine and in safe hands, and indeed I was in safe hands. God bless Dr. Patching and his team, from Becky and Nadia to his anesthesia team. The anaesthesiologist was very affectionate and very kind. You made me feel reassured despite my fear at that moment. Dr. Patching and his anesthesia team made me feel reassured comfort and optimism. The best thing about this is that the surgery was easier than I expected. Doctor. Stephen Patching is smart and experienced in performing these operations. I did not feel pain after surgery, the pain was very mild and tolerable without ibuprofen. The doctor prescribed me ibuprofen sedatives, but I only used them at home once or twice. The surgery was smooth and easy and my recovery was quick and easy I'm so happy. My only regret is that I was late in making a decision on this procedure. After the surgery, my weight began to decrease and my physical diseases began to fade little by little, I even got a skin disease due to an imbalance in the immune system and this skin disease began to disappear and fade. Wow, oh my god, is it because there is no inflammation in my body after losing weight, but it was thanks to gastric sleeve surgery. After surgery, I started taking vitamins. I became more active and energetic. I exercise daily for two hours or more without any fatigue or lethargy. If it's a day when I haven't exercised, I feel like I've missed something big. Walking to me has become like water and air. Exercise, has been a source of anxiety and stress in the past. 30 minutes of walking a week was an achievement for me but now it's completely different. I recommend this process to every person who suffers from obesity and suffers from chronic diseases and tries to lose weight through diets and could not. This process is like saving your life. Yes, Doctor Stephen Patching, save my life, God bless him Thanks to Dr. Paching and his team, thanks to Becky and Nadia, the receptionists, for their constant smile and their good treatment of me and their constant kindness. I love you all here and I will never forget you!
Meant to write a review a while ago, but now that I am about 4 months removed from my surgery, I just wanted to say that Dr. Patching was incredible to work with. I had a cholecystectomy and not only was he compassionate, but he also always willing to answer any question I had in a productive manner. I truly felt as if he cared about my recovery and I am glad to report that my quality of life has massively improved since having this surgery. I also wanted to express my appreciation to Nadia and Becky, who always greeted me in good spirits, created a welcoming environment, and were overall pleasant to work with. Thank you!
Dr. Patching not only changed my life, but I genuinely believe that he saved my life as well. My heaviest weight was exactly 300lbs and I knew that I couldn’t continue with my ways, and something had to change. After getting down to 270lbs through changing my diet, my PCP referred me to Dr. Patching. He gave me so much amazing information and helped educate me on surgery options. I had the sleeve gastrectomy in late October 2023. Now in late May of ‘24, I weigh 178lbs, go to the gym 4 times a week, and have more energy than I’ve had in years. I feel amazing, I love looking in the mirror and seeing me again, and I am managing my mental health much better. Thank you Dr. Patching, for helping me find myself again. And thank you to his incredible front desk receptionists! They are the first face you see, and they are perfect for the job. So sweet, caring, and genuinely happy to see you. I can’t recommend Dr. Patching enough. Go take your life back, I promise it’s worth it.
I came to Dr. Patching for a ventral hernia surgery and he and his team just blew be away. The level of care and expertise was incredible and I had an easy survey and recovery. Thank you!
