The Denver Center for Bariatric Surgery

Had gastric sleeve surgery last year. Down about 65 lbs so far. I don’t regret it. Dr. Snyder and his team and very caring and efficient, and he knows his stuff. For someone struggling with morbid obesity, I can’t recommend the procedure highly enough.

Dr. Snyder didn’t just change my life, he saved my life! Never knew the doctor before February 2015. My wife and I very quickly (out of necessity because of extreme and sever medical complications) got to know the individual, the man, the professional and without a doubt a compassionate, caring and outright loving person of which he was. After years of extreme pain, anguish, frustration, despair and complete loss of hope my wife and I were quickly referred to him by another outstanding doctor (Dr. Dan Siegel). Dr. Snyder immediately met with my wife and I and quickly identified a key denominator in all my ailments. His office staff worked feverishly to remove what has become major obstacles within insurance approval processes and were able to accomplish approval for expedited surgery, within 2 business days. I’m not a religious man by nature but I believe that divine intervention was at play here. I owe my life to Dr. Snyder and his staff. Thank you from the bottom of our hearts.

Dr. Snyder is great! Friendly and funny. I know I’ll be successful with him and all the available programs.
However the front desk staff needs some serious work. I’ve never experienced such confusion and disorganization. They have a tendency to interrupt and not listen and so they miss important information (both from patients and the doctor). They aren’t rude, just seem to always be in a hurry. The front desk is messy and I was nervous about all the medical records just in boxes behind the counter. Maybe they just moved into this office?
I also didn’t like that one of girls at the front desk has extremely long fake fingernails. Besides seemingly unsanitary, it was painful watching her struggle with basic office tasks.
Besides all of that, I’m happy I choose Denver Bariatric.

Dr. Snyder is wonderful and knows his stuff. My husband has lost tons of weight after the sleeve. The followup appointments in the beginning are very critical and you do not want to miss them.
I would advise you speak with the doctor about your gallbladder. Rapid weight loss like my husband had required months later for him to have it removed. It would have been much easier if we would have be informed of this prior and just removed it at the same time.
We would recommend Dr. Snyder very highly!

Parking is a little tricky but there is free two hour parking right in front of the bldg. Dr. Berry is very friendly and actually talks to you to make sure all your questions, comments and needs are answered.

I had lap band surgery five years ago with Dr. Snyder and his crew. One year later my wife did the same. Between the two of us we have lost 165 pounds and are much the better for it. My diabetes is under control, blood pressure is normal without medication and the same with my cholesterol. I still have an ongoing relationship with the staff and most likely will for quite a long time. If you are considering bariatric surgery this is the place to go.
