Your trust is our top concern.

We strive to keep reviews honest, trustworthy, and fair.

Doctors can not pay for good reviews, nor can they pay to have negative reviews removed.

We monitor all reviews to ensure they comply with our guidelines and don’t include personal information, profanity, libel, defamation, harassment, obscenity or fraud.

Any reviews that are deemed fraudulent or violate our guidelines will be removed immediately.

All reviews are confirmed and audited before publication, and community members have the ability to flag inappropriate content for further review by our team.

Dr. Antoine was great. I was very satisfied with my interactions with him.

The Best!
Dr. Antoine is the type of doctor that will always see the positive in every situation. Not only is he skilled in his field, but he is such a people person too. He explains every step and detail and makes you feel so important and wonderful. I would highly recommend him to anyone. I'm so grateful that I found him and that he did my sleeve.

I cannot say enough good things about Dr. Antoine! As a younger patient I was nervous to get weight loss surgery. My first appointment Dr. Antoine took his time in explaining all of the options and what he medically felt was my best option. Through out the process he was extremely supportive and answered all questions and calmed all fears. He gets excited when he sees how successful I am and genuinely cares about my well being.

As a critical care RN I always research a medical doctor or surgeon prior to making an appointment; I search for one that is technically superior, has low compilations, and low infection rates. With Dr.Antoine I not only found one who meets all these criteria but I also hit the jackpot with everything else he offered! On my first appointment, he took his time answering my many questions, did not rush me, and calmed both my anxieties as well as my feelings of embarrassment. I’ve struggled with my weight for many years and saw bariatric surgery as a last resort. Dr. Antoine helped me see this as a new beginning. Besides being technically advanced in surgical interventions, he also knows all the other nuances that are involved with a bariatric lifestyle: nutrition, exercise, mindset, and emotions. He is empathetic, witty, and someone who cares about me and my journey. I wholeheartedly recommend Dr. Antoine as a nurse and as a patient!

If you're considering weight loss surgery, Dr. Antoine is your guy! I've sent numerous people his way after my surgery 2 years ago, and everyone has been just as pleased. Dr. Antoine, even though he's at a healthy weigh naturally, gets it! He understands our struggles and goes above and beyond to help. He will be doing my hernia repair in the coming weeks as well. There's no-one I'd trust more. <3

In my 44 years I have to say Dr. Antoine is the best Dr. I have ever had the pleasure of dealing with. He made me feel comfortable from day one! Professional and caring and very thorough through every step of my surgery. Two years after my sleeve I wound up in the hospital and needed to have my gallbladder removed. I was so scared until I found out it would be Dr Antoine doing my surgery. I immediately felt a sense of relief and knew I would be ok. He takes his time to explain things to you in a way you can really understand. He even draws little picture to help visualize what happening. He is truly the best. I am so thankful I found him to help me be a healthier version of me. Every visit is a pleasure and he remembers me, and the things we discussed in previous appointments. I am not just a patient name on a file. He truly knows and cares about me, my health and future. Dr. Antoine is a wonderful person and Dr. and I highly recommend him!

While the practice as a whole was not as forthcoming as I might have liked, I cannot say enough about how fantastic Dr. Antoine was. He clearly enjoys what he does and goes the extra mile for all of his patients.

Dr Antoine is a great doctor. He is always friendly and cheerful and always willing to listen and answer any questions or concerns. He never tries to rush you out of his office, he takes his time with you. This type of surgery is a big step and takes a lot of work to succeed. He's quick to congratulate your progress and give you pointers to keep you going.

Dr Antoine answered all my questions, gave me a diet to follow post surgery and also diagnosed a hernia which will be taken care of in February. Dr Sadek performed surgery on my esophagus on October 29th, and after 11 days, I am introducing foods to my body slowly, and I am so relieved that I no longer have reflux. I feel fortunate that I found wonderful doctors at Advanced Bariatrics, and confident that I’m in good hands. So relieved that I’m feeling well again.

Dr. Antoine is one of the most caring and personable surgeons I’ve met in a very long time. I’ve had various surgeries over the years and learned a long time ago many surgeons like to well, be surgeons. That is to say, they like to do surgery even when it might not truly be best for the patient. That is not the case with Dr. Antoine! He treats his patients with a deep level of empathy and is able to communicate risk vs reward in a way I’ve learned many other surgeons cannot. Highly recommend!

I am a little over one year out from my initial consultation and 9 months post-surgery. I cannot recommend Dr. Antoine, highly enough! Appts are timely and staff are all warm and friendly. Dr. Antoine is a skilled surgeon who continually seeks to advance his education. He explained my options thoroughly, including a fair weighting of risks/outcomes. I had no surprises. Follow up continues to be superb. I am confident in his skills and know he is a caring partner in my success!

My experience with Advanced Surgical and the gastric sleeve procedure has been terrific. They guide you though every step of the process. They will answer your phone calls. They will keep your appointments. You will know exactly what to expect. I experienced some discomfort following the procedure, but nothing I would qualify as pain. I was working from home a day after being released. The diet is manageable and 2 weeks following the procedure i've dropped 30+ lbs and feeling terrific.
